Apple Posts Two New iPad Television Ads, 'Alive' and 'Together'

I'm sorry, but I find these Google ads better...show what the phone does plus a lot more...unlike the Apple commercials where it's just a static image of the iPad and iPhone.

True... those 2 videos together equal 3 minutes of advertising time.

No wonder they show more...

It might be better if you compared 30 second TV commercials instead.

Because, unlike iPad, Surface Tablet is a PC. Requirement to use another PC for backup/recovery would be too limiting. Mountain Lion does not have a recovery partition. It requires Time Machine.

Mountain Lion does have a recovery partition, but I don't know if that's factored into the 8GB. It's not even necessary for either. That one time it fails, you can just use a flash drive or something.

Uh no...I'm just saying because you guys ALWAYS complain how phones for Android never show how the devices work.

Read my post again...It says "Apart from the screen"

Reading it again won't change the fact it's wrong...

Wrong app

One of the apps is Toca Hair Salon 2 (http://appshopper.com/education/toca-hair-salon-2), not Toca Hair Salon (1). /Eric @ tocaboca

You people do realise that this is exactly how Apple's ''old'' commercials were? The only difference is that they didn't use a ''cute'' melody. I liked these but the guy screaming just made it a bit bad.

Saw the "Together" ad during the Academy Awards tonight.

I hate these drumroll ads with the crows shouting the word it lands on. I couldn't cringe more.

Titanic app in 'Alive' ad

PLEASE can anyone tell me the name of the app that includes a model of Titanic on the ocean floor in the 'Alive' ad?

You are already invested in the ecosystem. These ads are for those that are not. And even annoying they do get noticed.

Very true.
Fair point.
