Just when I thought it couldn't get any better than the "woo-hoo" marketing campaign here in the USA..., take a look at what our friends on the other side of the pond came up with:
The 'sleep' ad is unncessarily offensive and none of them tell you anything about the product. I know Vonage is still in the 'Woo Hoo' stage trying to get name recognition but I wish they would just do a commercial that says explains what they do. I have often thought a guy unboxing an ATA, plugging it in and making a phone call followed by a list of features on the screen and a price would be a great pitch.

Those are the sickest commercials I have ever seen! Do they really tempt folk to subscribe to Vonage?
I'd like to see Vonage expand into the US some more before they go country hopping. Where is my 541 area code they promised was right around the corner back in January? Come to think of it I don't see any expansion of area codes! The list of available codes is shorter today then it was in January.
Come on Vonage!! become a national organization then go international!

I don't even want to think of the uproar that would come about if those commercials were shown in the U.S. I thought we had some inappropriate, in bad taste, commercials here, but I can't remember anything that compares to those!
