    Couldn't stop laughing at the cheesy 90s style work training video music.

    They do, right on television. Those are there commercials. This wasn't a commercial. Can anybody not see it wasn't a commercial? Did anyone read the description for the video? I agree it was cheezy but when it's not intended as a commercial, they can get away with it depending on what they want to achieve.

    Ok, it was 3am and I didn't check details. The video is posted to the official BlackBerry channel. It's not an ad, but it's still official communication. And BlackBerry either made it or paid for it.

    Just watched it in 1080p - It does look a lot better and all the renderizations are not in your face (at least not as much as they were on 480p). Like Bla1ze said, who let this go online should get a spanking... But it does fall in line with some other promotion materials I've seen from them. I think that is bad news, I didn't like most of their promo material. This being the one exception (which took me time to hunt down):



    It's not serious, but it delivers the message nicely without being boring. But I am not saying that should be the standard either.

    This was talked about on another blog.

    It's kind of stupid. No one can verify whether it's an actual commercial, but it's on the BlackBerry channel. It could have been fan-made or created by some marketing company, but people now on multiple sites are talking about it as if it even matters at the end of the day.

    ...it doesn't.

    I've yet to see a commercial showing off the OS here in the States. In fact all I've seen is the one were people keep moving through different frames of life but even that has fizzled out as I haven't seen it in about a week now. Whereas before I was seeing it sometimes 2-3 times daily.

    I think it would be better to offer a commercial showing features here in the states. The U.S needs to see that BlackBerry10 is completely different than the legacy OS.

    Maybe it's for a certain market where these kinds of ads work? At least, I am hoping. I didn't like the music at all.

    I get what you are saying, but regular people, like myself, are going to see that think it's an ad. Most people don't read the description on Youtube and won't care. They'll just make a judgement of the product based on the video.

    That's because it hadn't been launched till pretty much last week. In Canada there have been plenty of commercials with the "Keep moving" theme. Then other commercials showing off the hub, keyboard, flow, etc. I'm sure in other countries as well. They haven't started the marketing push in the US yet, only mildly until more carriers launch. Today Verizon launched so they may step it up a bit.

    One thing is for sure.. the commercials airing here are defs not cheezy like the video which was on that youtube page lol. (which wasn't a commercial anyway ) .

    He's got a point lol... It is a lot better than a heck load of real ads... Shows the phone, shows what the phone can do and at real, daily situations.

    why would they show a commercial with apps that aren't even available for the phone? this happened with the playbook as well.

    The apps are available or confirmed as coming soon. Which apps are you speaking of?
