I saw a commercial for this last night during the all-star game. Pretty cool.
I haven't seen either ad on TV yet. But if the Pods Unite ad is anywhere near as good as the new VW Touareg (and previous) ads, I bet it will be killer. I wish Apple and/or VW would post the Pods Unite ad for download! I haven't seen any digitized versions of TV recordings of that ad either.
BTW: Apple has posted a special Pods Unite page with the TV commercial and a detailed description (incl. Flash demo) of how it all works. It looks like it's just a cassette adapter. They really should have worked on a line-in solution, and I hope they will do so in the future.
Eh, I like the styling of the new Beetles, but hear that the manufacture is poor.
What I'd like to see is a free 12" Powerbook with the purchase of a Mini Cooper, with the Cooper matching the beautiful brushed metal tones of the PB, it could have a turbo charger and be called the Power Mini.
I saw the "Pods Unite" commercial for the first time tonight, during CSI. As soon as the commercial started I said to myself: "This has to be a VW commercial. Or maybe Apple." Then it turned out to be both. I too like it better than the G5 commercial. Although I rather enjoy that one too.
Edit: Just watched the commercial again. I know nobody reads it (well, I do) but come on... white on white text? Even for the fine print, that's pretty bad (although it does preserve the aesthetics of the commercial better than black on white would).

Does that make sense?
Personally, I like it better than the new G5 ads.

Now we are talking.
