Apple Posts New iPod Touch TV Ad: Share The Fun

A day before the start of the holiday shopping season, Apple has posted a new iPod Touch TV ad to its YouTube page titled "Share The Fun".

With iMessage, Game Center, FaceTime and more, you can share the fun on iPod Touch.

By showing teenagers using the iPod Touch to play and communicate with their friends, Apple seems to be advertising the iPod Touch to parents as an alternative to smartphones with expensive data plans.

Interesting idea. As long as there's WiFi, you're set.

Also, to add my 2 cents, at the 3-5 second mark you can see a difference in the white balance between the dude walking and the girl sitting. It seems like they skipped polishing up that transition.

i think they did that on purpose to portray a wall, instead of him just disappearing?

Would've been much cooler if the person typed "omw" instead of "on my way" in 0:23 to show the new iOS 5 keyboard shortcut feature.

LOL... for the last few generations of the iPod, the marketing has been aimed at teenagers. If you look at the Facetime images on the Store. iPod images are teens, iPhone have been 20 to 30 somethings.

The subliminal message has been....... iPod touch is for youth.

It is the truth, not just a subliminal message.

Apple doesn't even need ads for these things to sell.
