BBDO put together a really nice ad campaign for Deserres Art Store. Instead of printing flat billboards they took recognizable pieces of art and built them out of actual art supplies.  You have to see it to fully appreciate it.

Nathan Bowers has a solid write-up at UX Hero on where exactly the iPad could fit in as far as content creation device. I’m hoping it does exactly what it promises, gets out of the way.
