Just watched the video. Looks like someone in marketing had their kid whip up something in VideoCreator (or whatever the Windows crowd is using for Video editing these days). Has all the standard transition effects. All leading to a out of focus, orange hand holding a phone (probably at the guys desk).
I'm tired of seeing screens with a shiny finish on them. MANUFACTURERS: Get the hint, anytime your product is used in the light, it is impossible to read the dang screen.
What the...?! Sorry, I can't take a company that creates a video like that. Did they use every transition effect that comes standard with iMovie? Spend a couple bucks and have a pro do it versus your marketing intern.

Its kind of hard to read but it is right next to the word apple. What a tacky font.
