From Slashdot:

Prior to the season, Microsoft and the NFL struck a 5-year, $400 million deal 
with one of the major components being that the Microsoft Surface would become 
"the official tablet of the NFL," with coaches and players using the Surface on 
the sidelines during games. But Microsoft and the league ran into a problem 
during week one of the season when television announcers mistakenly referred to 
the tablets as iPads, giving a huge rival some unexpected exposure. The biggest 
blunder for the league came during the nationally televised Monday Night 
Football game when ESPN's Trent Dilfer joked about how long it took Cardinals 
assistant head coach Tom Moore to "learn how to use the iPad to scroll through 
the pictures." In a separate incident, Drew Brees of the New Orleans Saints was 
spotted by Fox commentator John Lynch using a Surface on the sideline. Lynch 
remarked that Brees was "not watching movies on his iPad."
