iPad Mini Mega, Apple Spoof By Conan O'Brien In Light Of Mini USA Release [Watch Video]
To perhaps highlight the release of the iPad Mini, television host Conan O'Brien thought it would be a great idea to combine the best qualities of the original iPad with those of the iPad Mini. Introducing the iPad Mini Mega.
Making a comic pass at Apple's new device, O'Brien made a spoof video of Apple introducing more tablets that are smaller and larger than the ones out on the market now. O'Brien introduces the video by saying it's Apple's latest ad for a new device they are releasing. Then in the video, an Apple spokesperson said the following:
"We at Apple are thrilled with the Ipad Mini. We put everything you love about the iPad in a smaller package. But then we thought, what if we combined the sleekness of the iPad Mini with the rich display of the original iPad? Introducing the iPad Mini Mega. At 8.8 inches, it's the perfect blend of the iPad and the iPad Mini."
The man speaking in the clip has a British accent and is meant to imitate Apple's design head Jonathan Ive. The "Mega" was shown to be 8.8 inches, meaning somewhere in between the original iPad and the new iPad Mini.
The man in the video then introduces the iPad Mini Mega Micro, coming in just a tab bit smaller (at 8.4 inches). It is said to be "a revolutionary mix of other revolutionary things." The video then continues on to introduce a iPad Mini Mega Micro Max, "which is actually the same size as the first one. Oops," he said.
Do not forget the iPad Monster, which barely fits through at door at 112 inches.
"We're drunk with power," the video ends off saying.
The joke is all in light of the hype surrounding the iPad Mini's release in the United States. It goes on sale Friday,Nov. 2, and although those on the East Coast are still trying to cope with damages and other ordeals caused by Hurricane Sandy, some reports noted that there were lines of people waiting at Apple stores on Thursday night.
