In response to "Java is a Brand", Dave Buell, dbuell@ls.com asks: "In your mind, take Java forward. Let it mature. Now compare this mature Java with Smalltalk. What does Java do better?"

I need some help... I'm putting together a DaveNet piece right now, and am looking for the new Sun TV ad for Java. The ad is very cool, a bunch of slides that come on and off the screen quickly. It talks about limits, you don't know who the ad is for, but by the time they show the name, Java, you're interested and almost have a clue. This ad would play really well on a website. I just spent 15 minutes looking for it on http://www.sun.com/. If you can find the ad, please send me a pointer asap. Thanks! dwiner@well.com.
