Went to BlackBerry Jam in Waterloo with a co-worker who did a co-op at RIM previously. They played a similar music video and the key joke from my co-worker was "The cost of that music video could've paid the salary of the guy who used to be beside me."

If this video gets the ball rolling in getting bb10 a chunk developer mindshare - and we are talking about it - then it's likely worth the cost.
For me, "BlackBerry 10" no longer sits on the "laughable boondoggle" shelf. Now it's on the "meltdown in progress" shelf. That's not better.

Bad publicity is not good publicity.

when was the last time a bad video inspired a bunch of developers to start working with the product?
why would this video get any ball rolling?
