I have heard that as well long time ago before iPhone was out. And I think I can believe that as it was told by art directors.
Microsoft does heavy payment to get windows logo to be visible or get actors to say "Bing it" or use now surface everywhere to show it stand and Modern start screen.
Some companies even require you to pay them from product placement or pay even more if you brake those, like example Ferrari or lotus. Why you don't really see those often.
Me too!
. One of the best.When she facetimes her dad and see's his ear I died laughing, so many times this happened!
It was like a 23 minute Apple commercial, I'm sure they paid for it.
earlier in this thread i was defending the concept, but after watching it, i have to say i was expecting something a little more creative. dunno what that was, but anyway.. really, what really turned me off was the zooming in and out on mouse clicks and different windows. i don't ever get queasy watching 'found footage' movies, but the mechanical nature of the rapid zooms and pans in this ep made me kinda dizzy.
and i kinda suspect they shot claires footage with a pro digital camera or something. she looked far and away better than the other actors in their more realistic FaceTime scenarios.

I really liked it and I thought I would be off put by the usage of iPhone cameras (although ABC only broadcasts in 720p so I guess that helps). I did like how they used iPhoto as well so it wasn't just a social networking/facetime centric episode. It really felt like I've felt being stuck in an airport.
I finally got a look at the episode last might. Absolutely brilliant and funny. I never watch the show but it worked great as a stand-alone story. Really fun. Oh how I wish I could use Facetime like that. Having a conference feature would be wonderful!
Great episode! Watched it twice and fond it very entertaining. Made me want to use FaceTime more! :-D
Hilarious! And impressive!
Ironically I watched the episode on my iPad which I never do. Which made it easier to read all the messages and and pop ups, etc.
It really was a great episode and pretty realistic on how we use our Macs, iPhones & iPads for everything. While still trying to take care of business.
I also learned a few things from watching, things I haven't tried on my own device. Very funny episode.
