In case you’re not watching the Superbowl but are interested in being kept up to date on the ads, Motorola Mobility’s new ad for the Motorola Xoom on Verizon just played during the 2nd quarter of the Superbowl game in Dallas Texas.
The background on the ad is that Apple produced an “1984 esque” ad showing off the Macintosh and how it would change the world. Over the last 27 years many have made references and spoofs of the ad including getting political where Hillary Clinton was the figurehead in the mocking of Apple’s original ad.
The commercial is inspired by Appley’s 1984 theme but its clear that Motorola sees the Xoom as the first true contender against the iPad. We’ll see when it hits the streets later this month.
