Below is the promotional poster for the BenQ P50 PocketPC/Phone.
What’s wrong with the above promotional poster?
It’s an ad poster for a PocketPC which runs on Windows Mobile OS, so why is there a old titanium Powerbook laptop in the picture?
Why was this done you ask?
Because marketing people like Macs… it doesn’t matter that Windows Mobile doesn’t sync to the Mac without a piece of third party software because Powerbooks look nice.
The irony of it, it’s an advertisement for PocketPC but they use a Mac laptop.
If they want to showcase a nice laptop, they should consider a Sony VAIO instead of Mac.
I wonder what the reaction of the BenQ Corporation was when they realized this mistake?!
