I love this ad, it has the sentiment of the Think Different ads and shows off its technical capabilities and apps, nice work!
I'll "believe" when they fix the currently unresolved and widespread quality control issues...light bleed on virtually every unit and blemishes, dents and scratches on units straight out of the box.
Fix those issues, Apple, and then I will "believe" enough to get an iPad 2.

I saw the commercial debut live during the Butler-VCU game and loved it right away! Awesome job by the 
Marketing Group. It captures the essence of the product and the emotional attachment we get with it. Bravo!

No light bleed, blemishes, dents, or scratches on my new 64GB AT&T or my friend's 64GB Verizon.
A really good representation of what Apple is striving to do in the "post PC" era. It's not about tech specs anymore (although those are still important things). Rather, Apple is leading in the innovation of consumer experience, which perhaps, is more essential to a product's success than simply its size, memory, screen resolution, etc. The future leaders of technology will be the ones that entice their customers through the brilliance and personal connections made with their products.
Engadget wrote a great article about this a while back, in case you're interested.

you are getting false information, I would dare say 99% of ipad 2s have absolutely no hardware problem.

This is simply an amazing ad.

yea uh huh sure.
I want to ask you how many ipad 2s have you seen out in the wild?
Because I have seen 14, mine, my aunt, my friend, my friend's dad, and 10 in band class.
and none of them have any of the said issues.
so in my experience 100% ipad 2s don't have any hardware issue
let me throw these comments back in here too
Oh dear. How is Stevie going to sleep at night knowing that one potential customer is still on the fence...
Frankly, they don't give two animal-faecal-secretions about whether you buy it or not.
Did any of you notice the obnoxious in your face music in the background obviously designed to detract your attention away from the product?
How about the "Screen Images Simulated" tagline that lets people know that we basically spruced up everything you saw in After Effects and you won't get the same effect?
What about the line by line jabs at competitors products that make the viewer feel unsure about just how useful the product is if they need to refer to a competitors product to make a point.
....yeah. I didn't notice any of that either.
Nicely done.

great ad. Totally unnecessary, since it's impossible to buy one in most places, but great ad nonetheless.
just because you have no idea what you're talking about doesn't mean you need to show that ignorance to everyone else...
