Saw the ad today and liked it. In fact better than the recent Cisco and Lucent ads.

Hmmmm...if all these companies including our beloved Nortel, are all buying spots in the same time slots, then maybe the major advertising firms know something. They must feel strongly that their target markets are watching. I would also hazard a guess and say that us investors are also being targeted by these ads, albeit in a small way.

Cheers!

Chris

I saw the ad run 3 times in a row during Spin City last night. What started out as innovative and interesting became an irritant. Not only is the ad agency running ads to the wrong audiences (from a $/mil hit ratio) in the most expensive ad slots, they are turning off those audiences by repetitively running the same ad back to back. But, you're probably correct ... don't question experts who get paid based on the ad placement dollars.
