Continuing its tradition of miserable TV ads for tablets, HP has posted to YouTube its ad for the Slate 8 Pro.
The best that can be said is that it lacks the Palm Pre Borg Queen and Russell Brand.

Reminds me of the promotional videos on Chinese sites
This ad left me with only one question in mind; who knocked on the door? It’s obviously not guests, since she just wanted to send them the photo, and she seems a bit startled, and god knows what happened next…
The other question, now getting to me is: is this slate actually out or not?
B&H Photo in NYC reports it being in stock. And HP is selling it from their site. I guess we’ll see it rolling out to more stores — maybe Best Buy too? These days it’s really hard to tell. Retailers are carrying less variety — while complaining that online is stealing their sales.
