Kindle App commericial - Did Bezos upset Jobs?

boswd · 12-17-2010, 11:24 AM

I noticed in their app commericial there is a part where the dialog says I'm paraphrasing here "Well she switched from an iPhone to an Android Phone" bascially saying her library follows her no matter what device.

but last night it was reversed, "she switched from an Android phone to an iPhone" same exact commerical just switched.

Did Amazon upset the The Almighty? and did they cave?

interesting edit to a commerical.

Anyone else notice that ?

*and yes I look and noticed these things, I was a business major with a focus on marketing and adverstising*

Isn't it entirely possible that they have both versions out just to show that both are possible and not rub anybody the wrong way?...

Possibly.

Seems more logical to have both to put the emphasis on the flexibility of the Kindle.

That is what I think... I also would not be surprised if they have one where they have an android phone and they read on an iPad, and the other way around... Just wait for the Blackberry one
