i’m a big fan of the saying “a picture is worth a thousands words” and this picture (or clip) is worth a million (even though it took me words to say that)…..
As Seb mentioned, this ad was NOT done by Apple. And the original BlackBerry ad this ad is in response to was NOT done or endorsed by RIM either. It was a spec ad done by Guava, a NY ad agency: http://guavanyc.com/blackberry/

Oh, the soundtrack has either the real ping sound from Pink Floyd’s Echoes, or something very very similiar to it.
