Visor Prism in Apple iBook Commercial

I just saw an Apple iBook commercial which contains a Prism.

The ad features an airline passenger who starts unpacking his new iBook, and various other computer accessories onto the trays of his fellow passengers.

The Prism is never turned on, and sits in the cradle the whole time.

IS that good or bad that it was never used. Whatever. I wonder it HS gets any money for this?

Mac Friendly

Handspring was very prominent at January MacWorld. I know at least two attendees who decided to get a Visor as a result of their contact with the Handspring booth, despite the fact that they had originally decided to get palms. Handspring let us play with various modules and the Prism. Very savvy.

it's on their site now

That commercial is now online for viewing at

You have sharp eyes - I didn't catch it the first couple of times, until you mentioned it and I went back & looked again. You get a good view of it in the shot right after the one where he puts the digital camera on the woman's tray. After that, you can see it, but it is not as noticeable. Well, maybe to Visor folks it would be!

The problem is the ad just makes the bloke look like an annoying little oik.

There's also another ibook commercial that has the Visor Prism. See http://www.apple.com/hardware/ads/ for both commercials.

I was more shocked and appalled at the auditory abuse Apple was meting out with "Who Let the Dogs Out?"

Could have been worse. Could have been the Macarena
