Unfortunately, no.

Designed to attract interest in Nova Scotia and establish it as a desirable place to live and do business, the campaign made it’s way out to more than 3 million people in over 195 countries.

Even with the campaign’s success, some have criticized the Government of Nova Scotia for spending $300,000 on the marketing initiative.

Advertising, which included online advertising on websites in New England, sent users to the website to check out the incredible, seemingly impossible new device.

Upon clicking 'I’ve seen enough' or 'Release date' on www.pomegranatephone.com, an array of screens are displayed to the visitor before ultimately presenting information about Nova Scotia and its culture.
