Video: iPad 3 Hot – Consumer Reports CNBC
Highlights of the Consumer Reports’ “iPad 3 uncomfortably hot” announcement on CNBC. No portion of the video was duplicated:
- “Hot enough to be uncomfortable”
- “Hotter on the hot side, hotter…” (Yes, Reynolds used variation of ‘hot’ 3 times in one sentence)
- At one point, CNBC displayed graphic “iPad too hot to handle”
- After saying hot / hotter 7 times, Reynolds made a flip-flop and said “warmer” 4 times, the final time he just had to point out that the new iPad is “warmer”
- What about the safety of the hot / warmer new iPad? “Not temperatures that are likely to cause any harm.”
Here’s the full 6 minute video from CNBC, aired on March 21, 2012:
