**** FINALLY!! I've been seeing these damn ads everywhere in my city that just show the blue 'er' and a blue stripe that looks retardedly off-center and it's bothered me to no end. Damn you for playing with my mind, Bell.

oh lookie there...Bell is advertising the Instinct as an "Apple Eater" (similar to my point earlier about people calling it the "iPhone killer")...i feel sorry for the sheep who buy this device thinking it really is an "Apple Eater".

doesn't ER stand for "Emergency Room"?

perhaps the chaos at the corporate level is similar to an ER room when the sh*t hits the fan.

Bell is betterer. That should have been the tagline.

And the Instinct will never be an Apple Killer. They should have put that tag on the Touch Diamond, which is at least in the same league.

They should just use a slogan I've been using for years related to bell.

"Bell.. Oops."

Wow. Bell's entire marketing department should be fired.

I feel sorry for the sheep who buy the iPhone thinking it really is a smartphone.

Ya, this is kind of pathetic on Bells part. They go from a very recognizable advertising campaign with two beavers, to a bland and boring, uninspiring set of average boring people using their phones.

Bell has officially shat the bed.

When I first saw the ads in the subway I though they were for some depression medication. Some text used was kind of grim.

I don't get it.

How does this make Bell better than Rogers?
Is Bell better because they have devices that end in "ER"?

Which ad company developed this concept?

Wirelessly posted (Blackberry Curve 8330: BlackBerry8330/4.3.0 Profile/MIDP-2.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.1 VendorID/109)

Bell also rebranding their business units.
Goodbye sympatico, expressvu, and residential phone.
They are now named Bell Internet, Bell TV, and Bell Home Phone.
The ER is supposed to make people think Bell is bettER. I said getting rid of beavERs was a mistake.
