RIM to Air Its First Super Bowl Ad for BlackBerry 10 | Special: Super Bowl - Advertising Age

[anon(3896606)]

Also: BlackBerry 10 Commercial Airing at Super Bowl XLVII | N4BB, they also seemed to have confirmed a tablet.
Here is the quote:

RIM confirms that BlackBerry 10, its new mobile computing platform that will power the next generation of smartphones and tablets, will be featured in a commercial during Super Bowl XLVII.

Good to see Frank Boulben hard at work. At this point, BB10's success seems to be up to his team. They have the right product, they just need the marketing to get the word out.

[SDTRMG]

This is great news, can't wait to see it.

[DocDRM]

Haven't even flipped over to the link and I'm already stoked for this! Lot's of folks been unhappy with lack of commercials to this point, so hopefully this will turn some frowns upside down.

Just hope it's good. Sorry, glowing bikes just won't cut it here . . .

Just out of curiosity I looked it up and according to this site: Who's Buying What in Super Bowl 2013 | Special: Super Bowl - Advertising Age The average spot costs $3.7 - $3.8 million. I hope they use those 30 seconds wisely and I can't wait to see it!

Fantastic! I'm excited to see how well RIM actually markets now with Frank at the helm. BB10 is going to take the world by storm.

Yup, great to see them there! It would be terrible if we saw Samsung and no RIM on the days following their most important platform launch to date. Can't wait!

If I see those neon bikes I am going to puke.

I mentioned how it would make sense for rim to have a spot at the superbowl in the L series forum last week and someone said it would be a bad idea...i hope they run the ad during the 2 min. warning before half time.

[SixStringMadness]

Discussed this possibility in a few older threads, and was amused at the blow back by some posters......

I have to say, I saw this coming, and I'm glad to hear its coming to fruition!! Good move RIM.

[SlcCorrado]

I don't wanna take credit, but....

[drummer_god]

when is the super bowl? maybe i'll set my PVR so i can skim for the commercial after.

[Thunderbuck]

Awesome. Had been hoping, semi-expecting, but VERY cool to see it confirmed!

WOW. It appears RIM cannot do any wrong. This was not expected by me. I really did not think this would come through and it is.
