Random Thoughts: MultiTasking or Copy and Paste
Sitting on the couch, trying to unwind from the day, staring at the box with pictures, commercials start to appear. Unless you have been living under a rock, it’s likely that you’ve seen commercials for the iPhone 3GS. It’s also possible that you’ve seen commercials for the Palm Pre. Each of them touts the device’s selling points. Of the two I’ve seen tonight (it’s almost like the two products are competing against each other), it’s interesting to watch just what selling points are being advertised.
For the Palm Pre: multi-tasking and web pages and internet / cloud connected apps that automatically update in the background, all at once. No doubt, these are very handy feature.
For the iPhone 3GS: copy and paste technology. Hmm,…
To go on record, I think both devices are great, it’s just that I think that telling a user how great a phone is because it offers copy and paste technology underestimates the intelligence of the consumer.
So, let’s start the discussion. What features are worth being advertised in a prime time, national television spot? What features are worth being advertised, period?
