Hey, guy/girl in an office. Aren’t you tired of that slacks and a button down look? Would you like to wear your total absolute cool on your phone? Coveroo just announced their new etching service for almost any phone under the sun and they want to give 10 of you a chance to try things out. Your mission? Read on.
You’ll have four chances to enter this weekend. Today, tomorrow, and Friday we’ll give away vouchers for three covers – but not actual devices. There will be three winners each day. On Saturday we’ll have a super-duper prize day during which time you’ll compete for an etched iPod Nano.
Here’s what you have to do: post a comment describing how you’re going to break out of your cubicle jail. Will you dress up in wild colors? Will you move to an island in Tahiti? Will you etch Obama on your phone? We’ll pick three commenters at random each day and one lucky winner on Saturday. Get cracking!
When you win in the first three days you can pick plates from any one of the phones you see here.
I will wear all green as ST. Patrick’s Day is coming soon so why not wear it tomorrow and Red next day?
a fake screen on back cover, just to confuse a little bit more :D
I will fly to the UK on St Patrick’s Day. Oh wait – I am!
No Storm love? Oh well I’d brighten my wife’s ancient Razr up for her if I win.
I’ll stick with the current St. Patty’s theme and say that I’ll drink until my cube is interesting. My boss is out of the office next week anyway and we’ve got a bottle of whiskey that appeared here mysteriously about a year ago that someone needs to drink.
I would put the name of my first boat on my phone because it’s an apt name for both: Mr. Crappie
I don’t need to break out of cubicle jail because they’re doing that for us with our new, ultra progressive, collaboration-inducing floorplan with only two and half walls.
I would make a scan of the cover then make wallpaper with hundreds of the images. That way my phone will be in complete camouflage anytime it is in the cubical.
i will wear a tshirt from my old company to my new job (same industry competitors of each other)
Quit. Pontificate on crunchbase and become a web celebrity with millions of gf stalking you. I want to “be like Mike” (Arrington).
Easy: Ride a gold-plated dolphin to Omaha.
Nobody ever looks in Omaha…
I’m the office recluse – so I’ll probably just come out from hiding and say “Hello” more than once a day.
Maybe I’ll do it naked and really shake things up.
I will move my office cube to my house in Atherton….I don’t care about city ordinances and crazy startups CEO’s breaking in and pitching their companies. My 3 pitbulls need the exercise.
Moving to Palo Alto? Only if I’m between the Border’s and the Apple Store. Or then again, no. Too many crazy Stanford wackos eating pizza around here.
I’d use my newly etched phone as a loin cloth to show it off to everyone!
Since I wok from home so I may not be entitled to take the Q. But still, unfortunately, if I were, I will attach a para glider to my hands and fly, aka x men style.
I will get of my colleagues to join me. We will etch an Amigo photo on each of our cell phones. Together, the three Amigos will break free from the cubicle jail!
I will come in carrying a ticking-clock briefcase, upon the timer running out, (by then people will have noticed) it will spring open releasing one of those vacuum robots, who will distract people as i dress up as a mime, and use my invisible tools to escape though a window, (hidden rope to scaffold down but will look like i just jumped!)
I would grab my red stapler and go to the basement!
We had a server crash yesterday and just as we let all of our clients know it was back up (our servers run 90% of their businesses) it went down again.. I think everybody thinks I am goign to snap so I will start walking around acting like I am having convos with Bill G and Steve J and see if they believe I really lost it.. If they don;t buy it then I am going to sleep at the office under my BMW cover for a few days..
I’m going to break out by moving to the empty floor above me or below me. :( Where did all the tenants go? Wide open spaces…
I will fly around as superhero and find some new neighbors.
I will watch movie with full speakers and will not finish my work on deadline!! Hehe….
I will burn down my cubicle, the office, and the Staples across the street for good measure. If I don’t seriously maim myself in the process, I’ll consider it a success.
i think that i am all alone
Can you etch an image of my robot TiLR on one?
Or at least the RoboDynamics Corp. logo?
Wear my jeans and t-shirt like I used to in the other department :)
I would take over the cool office beside my cube. It has bigger space, sofas, door and drapes. I will play my favorite music (no headphones!). Sweet!!! Awesome life!!!
I’m going to take the entire St. Paddy;s Day week off adn spend 1/2 the time drinking and half the time recovering
Escape from the inside — put on some discreet earphones, connect to some music, and put on a happy screen saver. There, gone … without leaving my seat.
I would make a prank phone call — Obama has declared $20B bailout money for my company. Everyone would be out celebrating and I’ll be free
Record my voice reading a report, give 15 bucks to an intern to sit on my chair with his back to the cubicle entry, and have him to mindlessly tap at the keyboard while I sneak out of the beaureaucratic alcatraz to the land of freedom where brown ale flows freely!
I would work sans clothing!
Will you have any more pink options soon? My BB Curve has been waiting for a pink Coveroo….
Hi TechBabii
We already have pink curves. Here is a link http://www.coveroo.com/product/tabid/61/c-26-p-10-pk-tattoo.aspx

Will you move to an island in Tahiti?
I will be wearing my traditional island costume, the ta’ovala mat.
I will break out of my cubicle by wandering the halls with some papers in my hand and walking around with a determined, frustrated look on my face. A la Office Space. =)
I’d come each day in my beach shorts and a surf-boar to surf the web. Ouh, and put in 3 24″ screens and a big fan to simulate a beach.
I will scope out an empty office and move into it over night. The next morning I’ll walk into my new office with natural light aka a window B-)
I would dress up as the cleaner, with vacuum cleaner on my back Ghostbusters style, then walk like a crab around the office cleaning as I go…
I think I’d provide quad-shot tall mochas (labeled as a normal single-shot) to everyone in my dept, then watch the chaos ensue…
I would just act a fool.
Well, if I had a cubical right now (yup, unemployed), it would be simple. I would mix up my holidays. Instead of green on st patty’s day, i would do red, white & blue. For memorial day, i would put up christmas lights and sing xmas carols.
To top it all off… I might just walk into my old job and do it just because…
I wouldn’t be in a cubicle because my grand central, i mean google voice, account will forward all my calls to the right place
I just need to give in to my crazy self to break out :)
yeah the temptation to ride away for kayak would do the same
I will make my daughters so jealous, and then get their phones done.
I will be content where I am because I don’t work in a cube and have a window to stare out of if I so desire.
I’m going to make a duct tape outfit out of different colors and wear it to work :)
Woha!!
I have an old shirt from my school days, with messages written by all my friends. I’ll freak out everyone by wearing it! :D
Who knows someone might actually try & read what’s written!
I will wear nothing but my soon to be coveroo phone cover into my cubicle cell. Naturally (IMHO) I will need the largest cover they offer to cover up those important parts that need not be visible. This would really spice up the office and be a great publicity stunt to get the coveroo’s name out there!
