Soundbite and Script

December 12, 2011

ANNOUNCER:

CONSUMERS ARE SPENDING MORE MONEY ON TECH GADGETS THAN CLOTHING AND GASOLINE THIS SEASON, ACCORDING TO A RECENT SURVEY CONDUCTED BY THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE. 

TECH GADGETS, AND IN PARTICULAR TABLETS, HAVE BECOME A NECESSITY OF EVERY DAY LIFE TO CONNECT LOVED ONES, ESPECIALL Y DURING THE HOLIDAYS. IN FACT, GENERATION “Y” LEADS THE WAY WITH SIX IN TEN ALREADY OWNING OR PLANNING TO BUY A TABLET, ACCORDING TO FORRESTER RESEARCH. 

KEN MUCHE OF VERIZON WIRELESS EXPLAINS WHY MORE CONSUMERS ARE TURNING TO TABLETS TO KEEP IN TOUCH WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS DURING THE HOLIDAY SEASON.

KEN MUCHE:

“It’s one thing to make a voice call but when you’re making a video call on the big screen of a tablet its totally different; it feels futuristic and you actually feel more connected because there they are, you’re looking at them in real time and our 4G LTE network, those video chats are seamless, there’s no choppiness, there’s no lag.”
