First HP Veer Advertisement - Little Guys Can Pack a Punch!

The first advertisement for the Veer started airing on television this week - and with none other than Champion Boxer Manny Pacquiao!  Despite Boxing's popularity declining, I bet Manny's one of the fittest people in the world! The commercial is thirty seconds long, and shows off webOS's strengths - cards and gestures.  In my opinion, this commercial is leaps and bounds better than previous commercials for webOS phones, - hopefully it will help sell a few!

“So, why did I get a small phone? Well, if there is one thing I know: little guys can pack a punch.”  So, have you seen the ad on TV yet?  If so, tell us in the comments! If not, it's been uploaded on youtube:



What do you guys think of the advertising?  For a smartphone as unique as the Veer, do you think HP's got the right idea for marketing it?

    Haha oh man, I almost winced at the punch even though I knew this is just a youtube video. If there is one guy capable of punching someone through the internet, it has to be Manny.

    Doesn't look too bad, maybe a little small, but that might be just from the video.
