Why Didn’t Palm Run Ads Like This When They Launched The Pre?

This is the latest TV ad from Palm .  It’s actually pretty good.  Unfortunately for Palm, they didn’t launch the Pre with ads like this.

Instead of a little Mos Def and a hot young lady walking down the street showing you what webOS can do, the marketing geniuses at Palm decided to freak you out with this spot.

    I posted this before, but just got one of the Palm Pre Plus for the wife last week and like it. Could see myself owning one soon enough.

      A lot of people are sleeping on webOS. Many people say that it is the strongest mobile OS going. I haven’t run into many who have said they didn’t like webOS. Most of the complaints I’ve heard were about the buttons being too small…

    Looks like Palm and Microsoft share and ad agency.

    I just want that holographic personal device she’s using, i don’t care WHO makes it. Even if it was from Apple.

    Yo, I wonder what happens if you get too close to someone else and your device holograms bump into each other? Do they know? Brings new meaning to the word “mash-up”!

    Yeah, this ad is cool. The originals were SUCK!
