O2 blueroom

“So it’s true that o2’s next music phone to be released - yes, that one - might be getting most of the attention. But the Cocoon is a neat little clamshell phone that’s a bit different, a bit quirky and really quite fun. The design is certainly unique, and that’s a good thing in the sea of mediocrity that is the mobile phone market at the moment. If you don’t want the iPhone in your pocket, this might do the trick.”

I have been an O2 customer for years, and every year around upgrade time, I start looking into the different types of mobile phones on the market.

I have to say that advertising is very influential because it’s very difficult to escape ads on the Tube! In addition to advertising, I usually browse the O2 website as well mobile phone reviews sites hence the importance of viral marketing especially in the case of O2 who do not advertise their phones.

I had a little look at the phones available and the Cocoon is currently featured on the front page under the phones section – so far, so good!

However when I clicked on the picture of the Cocoon to get more info about it, I felt the description on the site was letting the phone down – what about the alarm clock feature, the nest, the map of the O2 arena? In addition, I could not find a link to the Cocoon’s blog or the Cocoon’s webpage!

Can someone point me in the direction of these links?
Why did O2 set up a webpage for the Cocoon, a blog as well as sending a free phone to bloggers if they are not going to clearly advertise it on their site?

since the 1st time id seen this phone i wanted it, but since looking at some of the comments on here im not so sure. my friend is meant to be getting me a cocoon for crimbo, should i tell him not to bother? my hearing isn’t the best so is it as quiet as some people have said? i would really appreciate your honest opinions.

thanks

My Cocoon seems to have a life of its own. Every couple of days i will take my phone out of my pocket to find it in the O2 arena mode, strange when im over 250 miles away. Also it likes opening up the music player randomly when i get calls or texts. Anyone else had these problems?
