Apple has just aired the first iPad ad during the 82nd annual Academy awards. As you might know, iPad will hit the stores on April 3 and will start taking pre-orders from March 12. Apple had aired the first iPhone ad during the Oscars as well.
We are also getting reports that Apple’s CEO, Steve Jobs was spotted at the event.
MacRumors reports:
The commercial was just on, depicted a person using the iPad on their lap, going through the various features (iBooks, Pages, Videos, etc. nothing new) with an upbeat song.
You can checkout the YouTube video of iPad’s first commercial below:
Steve Jobs was also spotted at the event:
It also looks like he has been busy answering emails as he responded to a blogger, who had questioned the 10-hour battery life claims made by Apple.
"... yes, we are getting 10 hours in 1.5 pounds."
Apparently, this time he responded using the iPad. He had responded to an email earlier to clarify that iPad won’t tether to the iPhone.
