Pomegranate

The Pomegranate is a fictional, mobile phone, from Nova Scotia releasing in late September 2009. The website boasts a number of increasingly comic features (such as a video projector, live voice translator, harmonica, coffee maker, and shaving razor, among many other standard features that current leading mobile phones have), but upon clicking "I've had enough", an array of information about Nova Scotia and its culture is displayed. The campaign is an attempt to attract interest in Nova Scotia and establish it as a desirable place to live.

The Pomegranate phone is the latest campaign from Communications Nova Scotia's Come to Life initiative, the place-branding program of the Government of Nova Scotia. Communications Nova Scotia has been criticized by some for spending $300,000 on the ad campaign, though the website received more than 300,000 visits from 181 countries since its launch on September 30, 2008, and they are considering it to be very successful.

ALGÚN DÍA ESTO SERÁ REALIDAD...
