J-Lo sells everything lately. I've seen her on tons of commercials.

The audience sure seemed damn happy to get those Playbooks. Positive reassurance

Yeah, more excited than they would have been if they were ipads ;) ...I still don't have a playbook yet :(

J-Lo not only endorses BlackBerry, she actually uses BlackBerry. She's always got her white BlackBerry everywhere she goes.

I think that drew up some excitement.

Now thats marketing, the more people have the Playbook in the hands the more developers will be attracted to the platform

That's right! It's about damn time RIM got out there and actively sold the PlayBook... it's a great device that's becoming even greater soon (I hear Feb. 21st) with OS 2.0!

64gb?

 
 
Posted by jonty12 Thursday, Feb 16, 2012 98 days ago

certainly seemed like it. She said $800.

 
 
Posted by diegonei Thursday, Feb 16, 2012 98 days ago

Did I hear eight hundred dollars?

 
 
Posted by knightfall Thursday, Feb 16, 2012 98 days ago

Me too. You know, the original price? (Which some of us have paid back when PlayBook was released...)

This is nice and all, but too bad Ms. J-Lo can't watch this video on her 9810...When is Vimeo gonna support BB?

 
 
Posted by Kingkracker Thursday, Feb 16, 2012 98 days ago

Ms. J-Lo can watch it on her Playbook.

 
 
Posted by moe1up Thursday, Feb 16, 2012 98 days ago

She sure can, but I didn't see her with one, I just heard her giving a few away and she suggested she used one. What's your beef anyway? Wouldn't Vimeo be a good thing on 9810...oh I am sorry you must be a RIM groupie.

 
 
Posted by sk8er_tor Thursday, Feb 16, 2012 98 days ago

I watched this video on my PlayBook. Did you even try?

 
 
Posted by moe1up Thursday, Feb 16, 2012 98 days ago

Did you even read what I said? Go back re-read my comment and then try again on the device I mentioned. Or any OS 7 device for that matter.

LMAO!!!!!! "Box of Quaker oats" I'm dying!!!

 
 
Posted by Sirhil Thursday, Feb 16, 2012 98 days ago

So thats where all the damn 64g pbs went to.

Nice. Glad to see the publicity. I've always wondered why RIM doesn't capitalise on its strengths, like the fact that TONES of hollywood stars use blackberry, and also the security side of the blackberry, they should be preachin this a little more I think, get it back in peoples heads that security DOES matter and that blackberry is top-shelf when it comes to this.

 
 
Posted by spencerdl Thursday, Feb 16, 2012 98 days ago

RIM....are you watching.....thats called MARKETING. There are enough celebrities that use Blackberry products to advertise ......Take notes and BeBold in 2012

 
 
Posted by MattyC47 Thursday, Feb 16, 2012 98 days ago

lol take note of what? you think JLO and Anthony did that on their own? Good lord it was a commercial. RIM is finally stepping up its marketing game

Winning!

Many forget how big the Oprah endorsement of the 1st iPad was. Not saying this is the exact same, but I bet someone up there in Canada was thinking along those lines.

Ellen is kinda big here in the states with the Oprah demographic. All in all, good move all around.

I hate plugs like these. I cannot believe there exists the use of shameless plug marketing still in the States. With these smartphones and constant connection to the Internet I feel consumers review devices online more than ever and it makes me dislike the product more.

I dislike Apple so much because of their advertising. Their products do fulfill their users' needs, but their marketing is mostly misinformation and that's not something to support.

 
 
Posted by npunk42 Thursday, Feb 16, 2012 98 days ago

That went over big.

 
 
Posted by boldkeyboardholic Thursday, Feb 16, 2012 98 days ago

nahh, that was such bad acting - remebrring her movies ;)

I just dont believe it, just empty marketing words, bought.

Cool that's good money well spent.

 
 
Posted by arsman7 Friday, Feb 17, 2012 97 days ago

anyone notice the playbooks given away looked bigger then 7"? there is no way RIM has released their 10" version for J Lo and Ellen is there?

 
 
Posted by Thachoc1 Friday, Feb 17, 2012 97 days ago

??? We all know you zoomed in to get a look at her arse! ;-)

 
 
Posted by arsman7 Friday, Feb 17, 2012 97 days ago

no zooming necessary.
