RIM spends the big bucks for a Super Bowl ad featuring BlackBerry 10
Share:
The BlackBerry 10 Super Bowl ad was developed by agency AMV BBDO. Speaking of athletics, RIM has got to feel that they are in that zone that top athletes talk about, when every shot is going in the basket, or every at bat results in a hit and for a QB, every pass is zipped right into the receiver's hands. So far, it appears as though the public likes what it sees with BlackBerry 10 and is at least willing to give the company an opportunity.
With a 30 second ad for BlackBerry 10 coming during the Super Bowl, there now is another good reason to watch the game besides watching Baltimore and San Francisco battle it out for the Vince Lombardi trophy. Meanwhile, you can check out below another BlackBerry ad made by the same agency that is doing the Super Bowl spot. Remember, we should see the all-touch BlackBerry Z10 and the BlackBerry X10 with a physical QWERTY, get introduced in New York City on January 30th.

They probably should have shown features that "do" things. Their new gestures would have been perfect. This doesn't want to make me run get BB10. Features want to make me run get phones, not dogs and sheep

RIM should have hired the same Advertising Company that Samsung uses... I ain't feeling this, and i'm, normally a people who "do".

I somehow doubt my 2 neices (aged 13 & 12) or my nephew (11) are getting excited over blackberry 10.
Enterprise users have already moved over to iphone/android, while WP8 is slowly garnering interest from first time smartphone buyers. Retirees don't like touchscreen devices, so that leaves who exactly ??
I want Blackberry 10 to succeed, but this is possibly the most poorly executed marketing campaign since webOS.

actually enterprise might look back on BB again with BB10! since iPhone and android even WP dont offer what BB10 can offer, the BB Balance, iPhone/Android/WP is a one user only right? while BB10 device with BB Balance will have the personal aura and also the work aura... its like 2-in-1 device..
but i was actually looking forward with that android 4.2, that debut on the nexus 10/4 the one that can have multiple users, with that you can have the BB Balance esque kinda look!

Maybe I missed it, but where is it confirmed that RIM was going to announce their product at the super bowl?

they wont announce a product on superbowl, just ads for the already announce BB10 device (which will be announce on january 30)...
but they might show a little BB10 tablet, follow up of PlayBook.. but i'm not sure!

but im pretty sure samsung will flood it with its own ads... but i dont think samsung still needs to advertise itself since most of the techsites are samsung bias!
