Apple Has A New, Super Serious Ad For The iPad
During this afternoon's football game,
The ad has an excerpt of Robin Williams from Dead Poets Society talking about poetry, and life.
Here, via Re/Code is the transcript of what Williams says:

Answer: that you are here. That life exists and identity. That the powerful play goes on, and you may contribute a verse."
"That the powerful play goes on, and you may contribute a verse."
What will your verse be?

It's pretty good at showing how the iPad is changing the world, but personally, I think it's a little overdone. What about you?
