Angel Steve Jobs back on Earth and in Taiwan to promote an Android Tablet

A TV ad by Action Electronics in Taiwan is using the late Steve Jobs, an Angel from heaven to promote a combined tablet PC and multi-language dictionary, which runs on Android. Actually, it really isn't Steve Jobs, but a Taiwanese comedian and impersonator Ah-Ken who dressed Steve's signature turtleneck sweater and blue jeans plus an angel wings and halo.

"Steve Jobs always promoted things that were good for people, Apple products, so his image can also promote other things that are good," said Chelsea Chen, a spokeswoman for Action Electronics. But the ad has drawn some sharp reactions on YouTube, with some branding it distasteful and disgusting. Others even calling for a boycott of the company products, even if the ad does not say 'Steve Jobs' name. Chen also said, "It's just an impersonator, not Jobs," and added, "We have no choice but to use Android, we can't use iOS."
