Sonyericsson at CTIA were showing off the packaging for the W800 i for one think its a fantastic idea to promote a music phone in this style/design of packaging...errm just makes it looks like a walkman? Do you think it should have been packaged in the usual box way or is this way better?..niot that it really matters but just you know.

Looks like the phone and other bits are stuck down or attached on card. [addsig]

The V3 alloy box is as classy as the phone.
A bit tricky to open but at least it makes it impossible for the lid to slide open causing your brand new phone dropping down on the tarmac on the way home from the shop.
(I did that once with a phone and thought my hart scould stop!)

The W800 box will be an eyecatcher in the chelves in the shops.
Great move

But phones are never displayed in their boxes, at least not in UK shops

Nice packaging. Should this be displayed in the Audio section or in the mobile phone section of a department store?
resistance is futile.

I'm guessing with that sort of packaging it'll give shops flexability to put it in both audio and cellular sections.

I like it.
