  • @iMacLover65 Palm Pre

  • I love my Palm Pre. But not having enough memory for my Music, Pics, and Vid's. Is its only drawback.

  • I searched the name of her on facebook, it reallly does exist. lol

  • I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SONG!!!!  I agree with smallmaniac, the ratings are so low because of iphone fanboys.

  • sweet phone

  • I want this song sooooooooo bad!!

  • I bet the ratings are so low because of iphone fanboys.

  • Agreed!

  • The ratings are low because the song sucks and the girl is tone deaf.

  • awesome crossover commercial

  • I can see why this has so low ratings, It's a promo and not a video for the actual band. Oh well Five stars to help out.

  • Still, when people click on a video titled "meet the palm pre" they should expect the palm pre you know? lol. Werid that the ratings are so low.

  • Amazing band.

    :]

  • what is the bands name??

  • Io Echo and the song is Doorway...

    welcome:)

  • oh my god! Finally it took me like a week to find this, I typed in the lyrics and everything oh my gosh thanks I love this osng and commercial

  • i did the same thing lol

  • this song is catchy!!!

  • The bands name is IO Echo, the song is called Doorway. You can find it on iTunes.

    They are a great band!

    They are amazing people. I am so proud of them.

    You will definitely be hearing more from them in the future.

    You have been warned!

    P.S. - All haters can suck it!

  • where can i get that song? can someone pass it to me? pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeee

  • If you dunno already, haha, Doorway by Io Echo, took me forever to find.

  • Awesome phone! I saw this commercial during So You Think You Can Dance last week.

  • what is the name of this song and artist

  • Artist: io echo

    Song: doorway

  • oh cool thanx : )

  • No prob.

  • i love this ad: it's very forward thinking. kudos to sprint for choosing such a hip band. i love this song. i noticed i-D Magazine chose one of io echo's songs for their website too. fashionable, young, and forward thinking. really great work.

  • for people who aren't haters, the song is by Io Echo, and it's called 'Doorway.' it's awesome, they're awesome, ad is a cool concept. you people need to relax.

  • love this commercial and love this song.

  • I LOVE this commercial. Amazing concept.

  • hahahahaha "u get right under my.. skiiinn!!!"

  • lol, he does say "rebolutionary".

  • the song actually sounded ok in the middle of the commercial but then she screamed SKIN!!!

    Overall horribly beginning good middle horrible end

  • When i saw this on tv I honestly thought this was a facebook commercial. I remember thinking how it was an awesome way to portray all the different components of the website. Suddenly the palm pre comes up............ who ever thought of this advertisement should be fired immediately

  • 2 Things:

    1. The music in this commercial sucks (like all modern rock with the exclusion of Coldplay)

    2. I believe the disembodied voice when he sais that this is a "reboultionary" (the b is not a mistake) phone

  • osanilevich - All modern rock does not suck... you just need to look around a little more to find what you like. Not all modern rock is the whiny type stuff that gets radio airplay. If you like Coldplay, then perhaps you would like an english band called Kasabian. Also, try non-mainstream alternative bands, such as Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. Another one of my favorite bands is Queens of the Stone Age. Not trying to be a prick, but maybe you should try out some new stuff.

  • you do have a point there. but every time I decide to give it a shot I see another crappy Dell commercial (the one with the people getting their new laptops after jumping into that warehouse thing) or another car commercial with the flaming lips (who aren't too great either). As Bob Seger used to say "Today's music ain't got the same soul.

    I like that old time rock n roll."

  • In general, music used in commercials suck. Ad representatives want to appeal to their "target audience," in this case trendy middle class people who facebook. There is lots of good stuff besides the Top 40 bullshit and the Flaming Lips- type shit you see on TV commercials...

  • i mean when did facebook take over myspace

  • when myspace got comfortable and stopped innovating. yahoo did the same thing when they ruled the roost and then google took over.

  • when did facebook takeover facebook anyways?

  • jesus christ palm. take a look at the apple commercials and learn somthin

  • ?????????

  • Agreed! This is crap. Learn to advertise... Everyone should learn to advertise. The only GOOD commercials are the eTrade commercials. God that shit is Hilarious!

  • im getting one...

  • I like my Palm Pre, i dont like this ad.

  • song sucks

  • it sounds like death

  • Who is in charge of the marketing & advertising department at Sprint? This ad is absolutely and unequivocally atrocious. Also, if you are going to implement Facebook in this ad, at least advertise it like it actually functions instead of portraying it as being unrealistic nonsense. Grade: F-

  • God this is horrible...

  • and I thought microsoft was bad at advertising

  • horrible song

  • um facebook wouldnt be like that for at least 5 years

  • wow they should have chose a different song and the ad would have been fine

  • ummm... who cares?!

  • Whos the song by!?!?!?

  • Apple is overrated and people just like their stuff because other people like it and their style is white. Also because apple is a cool name. I remember when apple wasn't a big deal when they had those old Macs, but then came 2004 and 05, they started to show ads and more people were buying their new things. They talk like they are counsuling someone when they are doing a guide tour or news about something, like my doctor lol

  • yah i totally agree. there are those apple users who truly like their products and find them to be user friendly. but then there are those who buy their products solely based on its image. and those people are such sheep and really annoying. they make me want nothing to do with apple.

  • It's also because the stle and their chemmericials look so good.

    I like this phone alot though.

  • only if facebook actually looked liked that. PWNAGE!

  • I was just about to comment that! That is exactly hat I wish Facebook looked like!

  • I love the 1 1/2 stars rating.

  • stop shoving your religion in peoples' faces. it just makes them not like you.

  • Number one this ad is stupid. Number too the Palm FAIL (I no longer refer to it as the PRE since the new iPhone will totally wreck Palm's sales) already has some speed problems with it's software.

  • woops. Number "two"

  • uh.

  • who gives a shit if theirs ads

  • I hate ads...

  • somebody actually made a comment saying that apple fanboys rated this one star. that's retarded because 9 out of every 10 video ads that are put on the YT homepage always have a low rating. people hate ads...

  • apple is overrated!!!!!!! they created billion of different things and it's annoying.

  • Fuck these stupid ads! YT SUCKS NOW!

  • Palm Pre Fail

  • Not that word again

  • Why would you get this phone if the new iPhone is coming out soon?

  • This is great, 5 stars!

    In a way Verizon isn't much better, they say it's America's most reliable network. Sure, can you hear me now?

    NO, No we can't!

    Your service sucks and always kicks me out when on a call!

  • Dont slap Advertisements in our face Please.

    I mean... look at all the responses.

    Not a good idea.

    Pathetic

  • you the one that clicked to watch it you idiot lol

  • Maybe he was fooled into it or maybe he wanted to watch it.. Nobody is psychic....

  • I guess that makes us .. what... 30,000 idiots? =P

  • hahha :D much love

  • This ad doesn't tell you anything about the phone, and the song makes me want to fucking kill myself...

  • Do you know what web OS and multiple apps mean?

  • thats because you are prob dumb enough lol

  • its like so emo, and the lady singing sings worst than i do!

  • TheGermanator2008 - Yeah I think she is tring to be "edgy," which means whining and sounding like shit haha...

  • not that this has all too much to do w. sprint.. but apple needs to get out of their AT&T contract and come to verizon.. asap.. too bad they couldnt really see how much better verizon would become in the future when they signed over..

  • Actually, Apple went to Verizon first when the iPhone came out but they couldn't come to terms with contracting so Apple took their business to AT&T.

  • what's the song

  • Sprint sucks. :[

  • Flag this video for mass advertising.

  • Youtube has become a place for advertising. If you have money to give them, they will cater to you, as shown by this shitty promoted commercial.

  • I Agree, this is Pathetic.

  • The song sucks, the singer sucks, the ad sucks.

    To bad the iPhone 3.0 was made or else this phone might have been a hit

  • worst sprint commercial ever.

  • the song the add, sucks, the phone is sick

  • oh.. and btw w/e happened to just making fucking phone calls? i really can't understand all this compact webOS stream from home blah blah stuff.

    the fact anyone would pay $500 for a phone is actually beyond me but good enough marketing lures ppl to do it haha

  • i work for sprint and have to deal with this palm pre promo shit all the time.....

    lol, but man i think sprint sucks man haha xD

  • "Now there's a phone that turns Facebook into a three dimensional rave with rotating cubes....introducing the Palm Pre from Sprint."

  • This is one of the creepiest ads I have ever seen.

  • one star this video to death!!!!!

  • okay, judging by this advert, all you can do with the palm pre is facebook

    nothing else because ALL WE SAW in this ad was facebook....

  • doesnt the iphone update their apps constantly? whats the big deal?

  • You missed the key word there, multiple. You can have multiple apps open at once and they are updating in real time.

  • Sorry to break the news, but these simple minded apple fan boys don't know what that means.

  • The first few seconds in I thought this was an ad for Facebook. :/

  • Judging by these Ad, I think it should be called the Facebook Palm Pre.

  • This band makes me want to puke, eat it back up, and puke again.

  • EVERYONE 1 STAR THIS TO DEATH!

  • lulz two stars

  • Director: Hmm... how do we advertise a stupid phone made for an unoriginal blog site?

    Employee 1: How about not doing what our competitors do?

    Director: Like what?

    Employee 2: Y'know, showing around the phone, making it look like it's only for internet functions, and then playing the music of some crap band noone knows about?

    Director: That's genius!

    Employee 1: What, not doing what our competitors do?

    Director: No, what #2 said!

  • you know, that's exactly what the iphone did. look at 1 2 3 4 and shit like that

  • remember when phones were to make phone calls? :)

  • amen to that. haha

  • OMG WTF IS THATSONG!!!!

  • I dont see this ad selling the Pre!! It barely shows me any functionality except the FB video and the one line narrative in the end. Learn a bit from the iphone apps ad, and show me what the Pre can do.

    And FYI I am shopping around for a smart phone.

  • All of these morons blasting the pre, you have no idea what it does. Multiple apps and a web OS awesome.

  • iphone completely PWNS the pre,

    this song and commercial sucks ass

  • How does it "pwn" the pre?

  • wat

  • So Facebook is there killer webapp? =P

  • Wrong form of their.

  • I hate english language sometimes. >.>

  • Every comment here is retarded.

  • old ipone is $99 now so yeah...

  • I think it's hilarious that they have a commercial revolving around facebook when they haven't even developed a facebook app yet.

  • Your contacts is Facebook compatible

  • Yeah, because you couldn't go on the Facebook site from the browser, right? I mean, that would just be so stupid. So much better to use an app that has half the features of the real thing. And of course since there isn't an app, there won't ever be one, right? God, you're so smart.

  • Yes, and you're coming off as pure intellect.

    No the mobile browser version of facebook doesn't have better features than an app. You can't upload photos from the browser and you can only see a very limited number of updates. Another downfall is that facebook is out of reach unless you are getting a signal. A real down fall for those of us who live in cities with subways.

    There will be an app eventually. But right now there isn't and that's why I think this commercial is an odd choice.

  • Not talking about the crappy iPhone portal site either. I'm talking about the actual, full fledged website, which is exactly what this commercial is advertising, so I'm not sure why you think of this as an odd choice. Also, as someone else pointed out, the Pre automatically pulls your contact information from Facebook and syncs it on the phone.

    And of course it's out of reach if you don't have a signal. It's on the Internet.

  • Man I cant wait till i can get my hands on the pre!!

  • Yeah that does look like the iphone but better!

    The iPhone is not that good, the only reason you say that is because the design and it is touch screen and it is from apple. And one famous person says they all start saying it. Just shut the fuck up!

  • ummm no the iphone 3G S is better ok

  • iPhone is pretty cool, but not everyone can get one, not everyone wants att.

    ATT coverage blows in my area, verizon, is worse. T mobile and sprint are great here, but neither have the iphone. (tmo is jailbroken)

    I love apple products, but the pre is very very nice!

  • Not to mention the Pre has the multitouch screen also. IPhone 3GS is not that big of a deal, I guess this video is rated low because of Apple Fanboys.....thats sad.

  • Hah! It'd be no different then watching comments for an iPhone ad. Only difference is aside from the higher rating, it'd still be the same damn argument.

  • iPhone for the win!

  • retarded

  • this commercial sucks

  • YEAH RIGHT

  • I love the animation!
