Blackberrys will always have a special place in my heart, mainly because it was my first smart phone and showed me the joys of always being connected. And truth be told, had my Curve not died, I would never have switched to the iPhone. The iPhone is great, I love it and wouldn’t go back, but the Blackberry has a better OS and still unbeatable when it comes to push email. And of course, the iPhone comes with the baggage of AT&T, which is another discussion.
I just saw this ad for the Bold, and it made me yearn for my days with the Blackberry. The the graphics combined with the great music managed to create a feeling of joy and promise.
Incidentally, the music is really catching on, turns out everyone wants to know the composer. If it is indeed custom music for the ad, I think Blackberry may have an excellent viral marketing opportunity here.
Quote of the Day
One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.
