An Amateur Palm Pre Commercial Emerges: Are You Paying Attention, Palm?

By: , 3/3/2010 1:03 am | 0 comments

I love Palm and I love my Palm Pre, but I’ve never minced words when it comes to Palm’s advertising: it blows.  So much so, in fact, that Palm squandered a golden opportunity when the Pre originally launched. With the loss of that opportunity, came the loss of precious momentum.

This, along with a few other grievous missteps, is why Palm finds itself in not-quite-but-almost-dire straits.  All you had to do, Palm? Was forget the Borg Queen, forget the Shaolin monks… and release a commercial like this, created by YouTube user IcerC (@IcerC on Twitter).  Well-done, IcerC! Edit this puppy, make another 30 second version, and we suddenly have ourselves a real commercial!

Check it after the break.

flattr this!
