Verizon Releases First iPad Commercial
As
noted by The Next Web, Verizon yesterday began airing its first
television commercial for the iPad since the carrier began
offering the device paired with a MiFi mobile hotspot in its retail stores late last month.
Entitled "Breakaway", the ad touts the pairing of the "magic" of the iPad with Verizon's network.
Introducing iPad on Verizon. All the magic of iPad. All the nationwide power and reliability of Verizon.
Verizon offers only the Wi-Fi models of the iPad, pairing them with the carrier's MiFi 2200 mobile hotspot device to provide service on the go. The bundles are priced at essentially the same price points as the corresponding 3G-capable iPads available for AT&T's network ($629.99/$729.99/$829.99). MiFi data plans for iPad users begin at $20/month for 1 GB of data. The carrier also offers unbundled Wi-Fi iPads at the traditional prices of $499.99/$599.99/$699.99.
