The very last one? You promise? Yes, that is good news. Ugh.

The wedding one was incredibly lame. What kind of wedding changes venue at the last moment and then only communicates the change via e-mail to the best man? Do these people not talk?

I dunno, maybe that was one hell of a bachelor party.

Ok, apparently from the link on there, you get the bride's response, where she's selling groomsman gifts, which happen to be N-Series phones.

Nah, the football one should have had him waking up to the sound of the match being played. The N900 could then have been used to watch a live stream of the match.

These are probably going to be only used in viral marketing (and they are obviously working already as people here talk about them) and not in mainstream media. [Sorry if repeating what others have said, did not have time to read the whole thread.]

Actually the wedding one is quite funny to me, perhaps because I had a couple friends storm into a wrong church once to a wedding after a long party the previous night.

Now they're looking for suggestions for the next video - with an n900 prize for the best.

I am so tempted to suggest a version where I was offline when Amazon finally sent the email telling me they'd shipped my n900 and so I missed it being delivered...

That was a painful promotion. I sat around for a while hitting refresh on "her" eBay page, but came away empty handed. A neat idea, but it's a good way to tire out a fan.

Just typed in a good idea for an ad and got about 30 lines down, took out my stylus to tap to a previous part for editing and tear crashed wasting the 15 minutes i just spent. Getting very sick of tear crashing on me when replying to forums.
The N900 browser better not do that.

Trying midori now to see if it will let me finish a long forum reply.
My idea is they should do an american style commercial centered around "clockwise circular motion to zoom" where people with Nokias (not N900) get a text message or phone call from a friend telling them about the new "clockwise cicrcular motion to zoom" and they take their finger and do it in real life to objects in front of them to create humurous situations and then at the end of the commercial they show a N900 saying, "The new Nokia N900. You control the zoom level" with close up of circular motion zooming in and out on N900.
