New "Switch" ads on TV
I just turned on the TV and saw a new "Switch" ad on FOX. It was about a magazine publisher (in a suit and glasses) talkin' about travel, his kids, his iBook. Apple's web site doesn't mention any new ads, but the one I just saw is CLEARLY a brand new ad...
Anyone else see these yet?

<strong>They ran at least 3 before the World Cup game...great idea since 1 in 4 people around the world was predicted to watch the final. I also saw 1 at halftime!!!</strong><hr></blockquote>
But not all of the 1 in 4 people live in the US where the ads were shown.
I watched the game here (UK) and there were no Apple ads.
J :cool:
Oh well i enjoyed them and the game <img src="graemlins/smokin.gif" border="0" alt="[Chilling]" />
It stuck with me over the years, and i try to use it no matter what forum I'm on.
<strong>Apparently Ben Folds is going to be in an upcoming Apple ad with an iBook? Not sure if this will fall under the Switch umbrella..</strong><hr></blockquote>

It would appear the ads are indeed working.
I like them at least.
