WOMWorld/Nokia is well known for hosting offbeat and quirky events all over the world. This latest one however takes the cake in my opinion. The #NokiaBox event started off with a cryptic clue in the classifieds section of the biggest newspaper in India, The Times of India.
With that teaser message , we were left wrecking our brains and trying to work out what the message really meant. To further add to the mystery , a strange little box arrived at our doorstep the very next day. The box contained a USB Drive with our second clue ! We’ve added the video below.
We were having some problems with uploading to Youtube , so we have linked to Mark Guim’s video
That video certainly took the excitement quotient to the next level and we were left guessing as to what this could be about. Little did we know that the guys at WOMWorld/Nokia would drop another hint and that too so soon
The image above was posted by the guys at WOMWorld and it confirmed our suspicions that the device to be launched was the Nokia C6 ! Along with this we received a mail giving us directions to a rendezvous point for the meetup.
Early on the 18th of August we got ready to move to the venue and met up with Clinton Jeff from ZOMGitsCj.com . Right there in the middle of the mall was a GIANT NOKIA BOX ! Quite obviously Cj n I were as excited as kids on Christmas Day !
Needless to say that we managed to get quite a crowd going around the box. The huge group of curious onlookers were trying their best to make out what was going on. Followed by the camera crew , we then proceeded to unbox the giant Nokia Box and that too in front of the crowds. This has to be the most exhilarating unboxing experience as we’re generally used to doing it in our apartments
Opening the box , we were delighted to see two Nokia C6 devices. Cj took the white one and i took the black one. As soon as we took the device out of the box we were surrounded by a throng of curious people who wanted to know all about the device. We as always were eager to share information about the C6 . The C6 which is expected to be launched here in India next month at a suggested cost of about Rs. 13,500 , is an extremely good deal !

We were also given subliminal hints that there is another event planned out soon and that one is supposed to be even bigger. Frankly speaking , it would take a lot to top this but we’ll be waiting eagerly
We’d like to thank the WOMWorld guys for the awesome surprise. You can read Cj’s coverage of the event here. Please hang on for the upcoming Nokia C6 coverage !
