I'm 30 and I thought the ad was cool. Maybe I'm just ahead of the game... and already clueless.
Snide remarks aside, I disagree. The ad works, and I'm exactly who they are selling to, and I was interested. It was hip, rad AND awesome.
Still, Blackberry to me means email. I had one for 2 years and loved the heck out of it. In fact, I was frustrated with my iPhone for a while after the switch. Now I love each for what they are and ad or no ad, it's too bad RIM is walking away from its textual non-media-centric awesomeness.
