Default Super Bowl commercial(s)?

I'm curious to see if RIM will make an appearance in any Super Bowl commercials telling everyone to 'Be Bold'. They've used baseball and basketball playoffs recently and were a high-profile sponsor of the NHL all-star events.

I doubt it. They wouldn't spend that much money.

I agree... at $3-4 Million it's a bit steep if you ask me.

So they can spend 3-4 million dollars showing off products that people have already passed on?

Release a product that can turn heads, THEN spend that kind of money on a SB commercial. Otherwise it's a huge waste of money.

It needs to be a product someone can buy Monday morning and use immediately. "Coming soon" won't cut it.
