Annoying Ooma "The talker" radio commercials

Anyone else find these commercials annoying? This is one of the worst marketing plans that I have ever experienced. What made them think that associating their product with an annoying commercial was a good idea? I guess that I remember the name, but it has completely turned me off their product.

Then it's working ... one of the cardinal rules of advertising is making you remember the product ... no matter WHAT it takes. :(

Yeah, I realize that it's working because I remember the name, but I find it annoying so I won't buy an Ooma out of spite.

Damn them!! ;)

Heh. They'll eventually soften the blow and make the product cuddly. But these is corporate times and so the only vote you get is with your wallet. I worked for a while in advertising and we wrote some great commercials. Only problem was folks remembered the punchline, but not the product. :)

Another useless Internet based phone service. I would not touch it for all the money in China.

But that's where all the money IS ... I'd hit it. :)
