Take that Apple
There is absolutely no way that Blackberry would ever run an ad like this. Which is a shame, because it is simple, interesting and very single minded. Props to Guava NYC who were the team behind it.

Stan, love it.
Simple message, great look and feel with out that 'clunkiness' that seems to have always come bundled in with the blackberry brand.
Fantastic ad - cheers for posting it.
It makes a simple message while standing out and being slightly provocative.
They kind of have "released" it though, haven't they, under the guise of "we could never run this, but check it out".
It's a pretty clever premise (and probably not something that could be done again as successfully). The ad itself isn't really that great (feels a bit like a more aggressive "I'm a PC" to me)
Agree with you John and it does have a "Mac vs. PC" feel. That said, it's highly effective.
