Fan-made ad for Palm webOS by ThiesFX

Inspired by Palm´s latest and greatest ad: "Life moves fast. Don't miss a thing.".

I did some work on a small clip on my own. After finishing it up, I decided to make it into a full fan-made ad for Palm´s great webOS featured on the Pre and Pixi. If you don´t know webOS, give it a shot! There´s hardly anything coming even close to it on the mobile sector! :)

Of course this ad is not affiliated with Palm, all logos, names and trademarks are copyrighted by Palm Inc.

Just giving back some love for a great smartphone and an even greater mobile operating system.

Got interested? There´s a whole contest devoted to Palms webOS currently running over at: http://www.webosroundup.com

Also visit http://www.precentral.net for everything related to webos, the Palm Pre and Pixi smartphones, there´s even more to webOS than any single ad could possible show ;)

For all the people who wanted to know what the music in this clip is: The track is called "CLASSIC Frozen Lake" and available royalty free on the "Darkside DVD Vol. 04" by composer Michael Donner here: http://www.michael-donner-music.de/ He´s a very talented composer I´ve been working with in the past!

Much better than the ads with the creepy chick...

if palm employed you as their head of advertising their fortunes would have been alot better.

This is a really good piece of work , it encapsulates the workings of the palm os in a way that is visually stunning and easily understandable by anyone.

It is much better than the ridiculously obscure ads that palm have produced!

Well done!

@mackenziepricee BTW Why for my sake, is that a threat?

[IluvGnu]

@mackenziepricee Yes, many people do have to live with it. Does the consumer have much choice when buying a computer to not have it come pre-installed with Windows 7?

Maybe if there was an actual choice and it was not a forced decision then the figures you mention would hold some validity, have you "used" any other OS's to compare & contrast?

Anyway enough hijacking this comments section. A better place to continue such discussions. w ww dot pointlessinternetargumentforum­s dot c om

Far far better than the rubbish that Palm commissioned. Perhaps if they had got this guy to make it they would not now be owned by HP (may not be a bad thing though) and be an actual competitor to the iPhone.

I am very happy with my pre and it works with me better than the iPhone, but I have only ever seen a handful of people with one, a shame really, WebOS is a great, very well thought out and put together Operating System and does not get the exposure it deserves.
