That may be true, but that's not the claim that MS made.
If their ad had shown a VivoTab and an iPad side-by-side playing a widescreen movie, I wouldn't have had a problem with it. (In fact I would've agreed with them that the VivoTab is probably the better device for viewing widescreen movies).
Instead their ad claims that the VivoTab is "larger", "lighter", etc all of which are objectively incorrect.

Of course the VivoTab can only play scaled down 1080p video. That probably does not matter to most people, but I really don't think Microsoft wants to go down that road.
