Headline: Frank may have lost the match, but at least he still has his pride.
Subhead: Or at least for a few more seconds while Bill uploads the video straight to the Internet from his Xoom.
Illustration: The ad shows a man playing tennis using his iPad tablet as the rack. He is pale, scrawny, and maybe in his late teens/early twenties. He is sweating from the hot sun, and seems to be losing the match against a girl using a tennis racket. Another man is standing by watching the tennis match using his Motorola Xoom to take pictures and videos of the match. He is in his late twenties/early thirties, tan, buff, and in the shade drinking lemonade. The two tablets are distinguishable due to the silver apple for the iPad, and the sleek blackness of the Xoom.
Body Copy: There’s more than one way to use a tablet. And when the tablet is the Motorola Xoom, there’s even more. That video you just took? You could save it with the 32GB of storage. Otherwise you could edit and upload it to Facebook immediately using Wi-fi or Bluetooth. Maybe you want to e-mail to your co-worker using the fastest 4G service with Verizon. Or why not just play it back on the 10.1-inch HD LCD screen? Finally, a tablet that is impossibly easy, but impeccably made.
Mandatories: Looks like luxury. Feels like freedom. Sounds like Xoom.
