What do you think of this new BlackBerry ad?

A screenshot from the new ” “BlackBerry: Get more from your day” ad. Research in Motion is running a variety of ads in the UK. Are these dry runs for the new BlackBerry 10 campaign later this year?

Seems like a lot of the experimentation in RIM’s marketing ahead of the much anticipated BlackBerry 10 launch these days is coming out of the UK.

A lot of people thought these recent “People Who Do” ads were some of the best ever for the Canadian device maker.

A new one, posted yesterday, strikes us as a little more pedestrian, pun intended. The ad, entitled “BlackBerry: Get more from your day” demonstrates that a BlackBerry can help you stay mobile in your work, and that the device gives you the flexibility to do so. In our opinion, it doesn’t connect as well as the “People Who Do” ads, and also seems a bit dated.

What do you think? Take a look at the ad and vote in our poll below:
