Nice work, but I cannot see the use of unboxing videos.
EDIT: no offense towards you personally meant by my reply
Thanks for the vid!
Darn, I was waiting for you to show the device and you ended right there but great vid.

Unboxing videos are for people who don't yet have the gadget, but are wanting it. There are few things as fun in a geeks life as opening a new toy and playing with it for the first time. Unboxing is kind of like geek porn in a way.

Haha, you hit the nail on the head with that one, and I can relate to that because I myself am a gadget geek. However, when watching unboxing videos, I tend to feel impatient and jealous. Instead of just shutting out normal customers completely with the early release, why not just charge non-premiere customers an additional fee, that way both sides are happy, AT&T gets more money in their greedy little hands, and the non-premiere customers get the option of getting it early.

What do think? Did Microsoft just give us glimpse into the next version of Windows Mobile? I'm pretty exited over this if you can't already tell.
WOW!
It's on the nike too!
Can't wait to see if they release it for the nike!

Ditto. And I hope it's a little more spiffed than what I've seen from the SDK emulator and the "leaked" pics of the supposed first phone.

I'm here because I believe in helping people get the most from their dash through greater information availability...that and I actually *like* some of the guys on this board.
That having been said, I'm not a fan of Microsoft who, unless there is significant competition from one or more outside sources, will *not* innovate since they know they have consumers by the balls.
I'm all for checking out Android since it's open-source. As it's about the only thing that promises major, widespread, worldwide consumer competition for Microsoft, it will hopefully light a fire under their respective asses to actually improve their stagnant PDA-phone operating system. The supposed WM7 pics and videos might be a start, but they're already way behind.
I've used smartphones since WM2002, and it really hasn't changed fundamentally since then. To use the current political language, Microsoft can only keep putting fresh lipstick on a pig for so long.

That's a dumb question...
I am here because I own a Dash and I LOVE it.
I am here because YOU asked for our opinions.
I am here because this is a GREAT group of people with a lot of knowledge and skill.
However this discussion is about WM7, which the Dash WILL NOT HAVE.
Those Youtube videos don't even show 2 seconds worth of video of the phone, what exactly are we supposed to see?
Thanks for asking, but next time if you want peoples opinions, don't always expect them to agree with yours....
Beartard, you are absolutely right, I have had a PPC since day one, and its pretty much the same today as back then..
Wow, tough crowd. I appreciate the video surfacing again, and it shows some things which we did not appreciate then:
1) Sliding panels is coming to WM Professional.
2) The live mesh integration client is pretty cool.
3) WM7 is going to look cool too.
For the people looking for change over the years, I have been using WM since 2000, and I have seen plenty of change.

AT&T has a new ad for WP7 and i think its the best one so far. it finally shows off what the phone can do. What do you guys think of the ad.
here is the link
YouTube - New Windows Phone Ad: What if?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrhpXQqS3Is
Best wp7 ad I have seen so far...I hope sprint can come up with something like this
It's amazing. This add attracts peoples attention for WP7.
For me, also the best ad i have seen. Here in Germany, the ads of WP7 are not very good (my opinion).
nice marketing ! the graphics pouring into the phones is sharp !
too bad you can't share any of those movies, pictures, or files with a friends phone.

I think you have answered your question. Does he even own a Windows Phone? You have to question someone's motivations, maturity, or mental development. Or all 3.
def. the best ad so far, finally they aren't playing those stupid ones about that idiot skydiving who has a dedicated hw camera button or that dumbass who keeps looking at his phone, looks like MS finally found a decent marketing strategy (or is this ATT's doing?)

Simply the best commercial for a nexus I have had the pleasure of seeing. Nice job Google

but it only shows the power of video conferencing, doesn't show the neat stuff the phone
now if only they'd release the damn phone lol

You have to agree its better than Verizon DROID commercials that show you absolutely nothing about the phone right?
I thought that was a pretty terrible advert to be honest.
It seems like it was targeted toward young people.

IMHO the Verizon Droid commercials and the Droid brand identity in general are some of the absolute worst marketing decisions ever made. It's like they don't even want women and older people to buy the devices.

Agreed. I have a few of my iPhone friends ask me sometimes "I want to buy a Droid but when I look at these commercials I have no idea what the hell it does...Am I supposed to go into space with it or something?"
That whole "mysterious space age" stuff isn't exactly attractive to the mainstream market. Maybe only techies and sci-fi lovers.
On topic: I thought the commercial was a little limiting (doesn't show everything about the device), but yes, something like THAT does attract the mainstream market a little more.

Agreed. They're just terrible.
That's why I like these new Nexus commercials. They actually show people using the phone for real world stuff.
That advert is ****.
It would be nice if they did an advert in the UK, I've never seen an advert for a Nexus handset.
Out of all the Galaxy Nexus commercials I have seen thus far I think this one is probably the best and appealing to most people:
1. It's over!!!
2. Be Social
ENJOY!!!! They are pretty good.
The first one made me chuckle, we will see how nokia lives up to the hype
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
I get it, but...
Cute, I guess.
Seriously, though, they gotta do better than this! Doesn't say anything about the phone.
It'll be good to finally see them on TV as well as follow up commercials for my new hero phone.
I like the "death grip example" (mock scenario) they posted.
They need to show what the phone can do. Okay to poke a little fun between goliath companies, but consumers need to know what they are buying into. I bought one of the first "Windows Phone" back in 2010, and liked that it was different and I could swap batteries. Seems I can't with this model. I'll hold onto my Lumia 710 for a bit before jumping up to the 900.It has same features, just not the big screen.

Getting better. I'm ok if some of the commercials just give a sneak peak and some give a few more details like this one.
I think its actually pretty smart. A commercials job is to get people to think, ask and talk about a product. If it gets people in to a store to ask how it is different or to get more info etc... then it did its job.
In the US we LOVE to root for the underdog. eg.. "Firefox, take back the web.... "
We had a local restaurant thats gone statewide after their "Save the bird eat a xxxx" add campaign.
The only thing they could have done better in those commercials would have been to hook in to an underdog theme.
Please tell me why with every mobile introduced we have people making Youtube clips of the mobile being hit with hammers, knives, boiled in soup, cooked in a cake etc etc? I truly don't understand these clips. They are in no small way scientific and prove nothing. Where does Samsung say that that the note 7 can be hit with a 1.5kg hammer? Why would someone take a hammer to a phone? Why are such morons surprised when the mobile breaks?
What do these clips achieve? I genuinely don't understand them, in fact I find them a complete insult to the maker of the clip and feel embarrassed particularly when they take such clips seriously!

Because they make more than enough money to buy and trash phones by uploading those videos on youtube. People are bound to watch them out of curiosity and insecurity.
Because... They make money out of YouTube advertising?

And lets be honest there is a market for those videos I myself am guilty of watching some of those. OP doesn't even need to think why. He should just look at the thread about gorilla glass 5 and how that is going to understand why.

I just saw the hammer test video in my YouTube feed. It was created two days ago and it has already gathered 100k views.
Directly below was a Sonic Boss Run video. Created 11 months ago and "only" 50k views.
