Fins spotted all over NBC’s Celebrity Apprentice

Looks like Helio’s made some friends over at NBC. The Fin was featured all over Friday night’s episode of Celebrity Apprentice. Including the part where Stephen Baldwin danced around to the default “Dingaling” ringtone, we counted at least 4 Fin appearances.
It’s nice to see Helio products gettin’ some more airtime. Though it was the only Helio we saw, the Fin definitely wasn’t the only product that just happened to repeatedly find its way into a shot - the MacBook Pro and some compact camera that we couldn’t identify got a whole lot of screen lovin’ too.
We’re spotting more and more celebrities sporting Helio devices - anybody want to take a stab at which famous face will be the next seen talkin’ into a Helio? (And no, I’m pretty sure the answer isn’t Steve Jobs.)

Helio has an agency focused on PR and celebrity relations. They should have a bunch of placements. Wonder if the ROI is working out?

So I was watching Keeping up with the Kardashians and their whole family is rocking oceans. Since I also have an ocean that means Kim loves me and wants to marry me =)

Yep, Kardashian’s are an Ocean family

It’s great when you know something and find out you’re not the only one. I notice the kardashians too. And the helion nation is growing. anytime i see an ocean i call out “helio” and flash mine and the other person shows theirs. it’s like tipping off the hat.

Ocean = NEW SIDEKICK
Fin = NEW RAZR
Get with it people… Paris Hilton will soon rock ONE OR THE OTHER!
Anyway, I like my Helio, I have both Ocean and Fin. Im not sure which one I like more.
I do think that Helio would do better with celebrity product placements, in things like Apprentice and other similar shows, if they had a PTT feature. Something about showing off a 3G phone, with Video Calling and PTT would be VERY useful in the challenges and getting things done faster. Creates more competitive edge against each other as well. So I HOPE they come out with QChat, or “LiveTalk”

@bgp:
I think you’re talkin’ the recent Applebees commercial.

I’ve also seen the Ocean in a few episodes of Snoop Dogg’s Fatherhood, on the E! network.

I work for Helio and I am guessing this site has something to do with Helio house , its a llame attempt to get new people to sign up!

@C Johnson:
Sorry dude, your guess is about as far off as it gets. Anyone involved with making this site is just a hobbyist; no affiliation with Helio House.
