Had to see what all the iAd hullabaloo was about.

So I downloaded the free TV Guide application (for iPad), which was purported to have the TRON ad in it. By this afternoon, it did.

I was impressed by the iAd system. After touching on the ad, it took me to a fun little mini-app (more likely HTML5) which let me view the trailers, a couple other nifty things then, by simply touching the close box, bot right back to where I was in the TV Guide app. As an ad interface, I don't know how you could make it more smooth.

And the trailers looked great - a bit darker than the original TRON - updated graphics and attitude. Liked it. Looking forward to seeing the movie and, I'd have to admit, the ad created more anticipation in me than I had before. It definitely worked.
