Apple posted a new television ad today highlighting their "Do Not Disturb" feature. Professional tennis players Serena and Venus Williams are shown playing ping-pong against the narrator in a dream:

Ever had a really cool dream? I'm having one right now. I don't want to be disturbed. And I won't because before I went to sleep, I set this. Now my iPhone knows not to ring unless its important. Cause disturbing this would just be... Wrong.
Ironically, the new ad comes on the same day that a bug in the scheduled Do Not Disturb feature prevented it from turning off on many iPhones.

Apple purposely prevented it from switching off so their new years dreams lasted longer :p

I'm stunned at the banality of this ad.

On another note if you know you are dreaming and therefore are glad you set your phone to dnd then that means that you are lucid dreaming. And in a lucid dream you can do anything. I don't mean pretty well anything, I mean anything. And if the best this chap can do is a game of tennis then I'm afraid that is very very sad.
