I'd agree. However, it also looks like it might be a Blu, which would be supported by the fact that it was given out at the premier. I'm about 90% confident it's one of the three, though. Bit of a shame really, maybe some rich and charitable ECF member should try to mail him an eGo, haha.

If I wasn't married I'd personally deliver it :)

I love how people knock the blu despite blucigs projection of doing over $30 million in sales for 2010. Just because a "few" people on this forum, and other like it, dislike the blu doesn't mean it's a horrible product. It does exactly what it was designed to do and it's priced accordingly. Will it satisfy a "heavy vaper"? Hell no...and it's not supposed to.

I applaud blucigs for promoting the industry as well as they have.

Another thought. You think he'll do for pvs, what this guy did for the other things?

it could be far, far worse than blu. at least it wasn't a smoking everywhere or somesuch lol.

unfortunately i can't think of any "sexy" e-cigs that can be easily promoted except for maybe blu and volcano....but johnny depp with an inferno would be cool.

All I know is, I bought one, and less than a week later, I was extremely frustrated and had to order a new model to keep pace with any significant cravings. And I've seen numerous people post almost exactly the same story. You're right to some extent: I have heard from people who have been quite satisfied with it, and I'm not saying that it's a "bad" device. I'm just saying that when, in my experiences, dissatisfied customers seem to outnumber satisfied customers maybe 10:1, well... I'm certainly going to point out that fact and give my frank assessment of it. I feel that if I had heard more about it before I ever ordered mine, maybe I could have saved myself $60.

I haven't seen it, but I'll offer a guess...
Most of the celebrities that use electronic cigarettes are using the SmokeStik brands Hendu or Pitbull.

That is what Katherine Heigl was using on Letterman awhile back.


but she's a sexy lady so it's understandable lol. i'd be taken aback if somebody like mike rowe or sylvester stallone was using one.

i think the ratio skews the way it does because usually people who are happy with something aren't very vocal about it. it's the squeaky wheels who are the most vocal.

That's unfortunate. I had a very positive experience with Blu even though I did not stay with it.

Their customer service was very helpful before I bought anything. My order arrived promptly. I loved the way it looked, felt, and vaped. During my first day of use, I found it intolerable because of the short battery life (often had a battery die while the other was still charging, so I had to revert to analogs).

I returned it after using about a dozen carts, and they refunded the full purchase price very quickly. I was out nothing and learned a great deal.

I think PVs are much like cars -- some people are happy with a Mini-Cooper while others really need a 4x4 with flatbed.

So. California, USA
Now if Philly Morris gets on the train (like they should have a LONG time ago), what will that do to the cost? Phillip Blu?

Will they be cheap? Can they have the FDA fully ban the competition with lobbyists?

Hmmm. Philly with no added carcinogens, or formaldehyde?

I still might stick with DeKang-ish juice, if only for the price, and their rep.

No it was portrayed very well. More in the middle though. Not good or bad just informative. He asks if he can smoke then explains that its not real its just nicotine and water vapor. Then the movie goes on. But he smokes it throughout most of the movie

how cool is that!:)
