Apple Television Ad Says iPhone "Coming June 29th"

[darwen]

I dont like it. It is really boring. They need something creative and simple like the hello ad or the current ipod ads. This ad is not really making me want the phone.

 

[jimN]

Reminds me of the nano ads (was it the nano) which just showed hands handlin the product. Not as stylised as the iPod ones but certainly demonstrates the functionality of the phone and the tight integration of it's many areas.

If there are three ads out there it looks like we need some more people with MBs pointed at their TVs.

"Use requires 2 year activation plan" is interesting...

 

[Aperture]

It did say something about 2yr contract plans, but I cannot make out the first half of the sentence

Just check the ones on Apple's site.

I just read it, it does say it requires a 2 year contract.

I just rewinded my DVR again and it says "Use requires 2 year activation" on the AT&T slide.

Here you go

 

[Darkroom]

Here you go

howd u get that high quality pic?

who are these people that are recording their TVs?

Earlier in the thread, if you were reading, Aperture said he had his laptop out and recorded it with iSight. Plus he has a DVR.

i love the jingle!!

 

[anirban]

Thank God that the launch date is out for that thing.... now, can we focus our attention to MBPs??

 

[tkidBOSTON]

I just read it, it does say it requires a 2 year contract.

"...new 2 year ACTIVATION plan."

Is this the contracts we're used to? Debate...

Am I the only who's pretended like they are typing on the iPhone? When I do it's ALWAYS using my middle finger to type - just seems like it's a lot faster for me (that and it being the longest finger kinda helps...). Just wondering 'cause they show this guy using his index finger and it seems so slow...

Any thoughts? What finger do you use when you're pretending to type on the iPhone?

I use my index finger

2: they totally don't follow apple's history of never!!!!! telling a date for availability in the future.
3: if you watch the video the part of the iphone that causes it to switch from widescreen to straight up seems to be off timing???????
[/snip]
5: not to mention it's seems like a very poor add.

2. Kinda, they suggested future dates with the XServe and AppleTV. People need time to get out of their contracts, and not get new phones.
3. Maybe video is only widescreen
5. I don't think so

 

[HailToTheVictor]

Just check the ones on Apple's site.

Thanks, I did, all three in fact,

 

[mentatbashar]

Did anyone catch what it said right where it shows "Only with the new AT&T" at the bottom of the page. I think it says something about a 2 year contact. Someone check it!!!!!!!!!

After looking at it on the Apple website the quote it shows is "Use requires minimum new 2 year activation plan".

Hi, I'm new to the forums!

The iPhone's screen looks fantastic.

3 Different Ads on Apple.com

[Rocketman]

Just to play it safe I have a few criticisms of these adds....
1: they are from ATT, not apple... this is not consistent of apple
2: they totally don't follow apple's history of never!!!!! telling a date for availability in the future.
3: if you watch the video the part of the iphone that causes it to switch from widescreen to straight up seems to be off timing???????
4: also there are a few times he hits the screen and the screen doesn't respond
5: not to mention it's seems like a very poor add.

I say ****!

AT&T is paying for more cash ads than Apple. The media is hyping iPhone (ATN) for FREE!!

Apple rocks. Ever heard of a "Mac-Mini?" ATN and ATNN.

[Cindynjgirl79]

oh that was good, made my night

 

[iMichael72]

Finally a date!! I don't think I'll be able to take off, but a loooong lunch trip to my nearest AT&T store perhaps?

 

[jimN]

Have just watched all 3 ads. Wasn't sure after the first but now I am - very sweet. I like the fact that this is positive advertising demonstrating genuine product functionality. All you see is the phone doing everything it should and everything people will want from it - yes it would be nice to have a document reader and other things, but what you see there is what most people want and it looks great.

 

[slffl]

OMG it looks AMAZING!!!!! I feel bad for all the Apple/iPhone haters out there who will never be able to have one unless they want to by hypocrites

 

[Vidd]

Great, now I want one.

UNNECESARY

The giant text or the stupid "-=|" thing he signs his posts with?
Leave it on Digg.

 

[Mac-Addict]

Sweeeeet iPhone Ads on Apple! I like the one "Never been and iPod that can..." Ok I am offically getting one now!

And this is a call. On your iPhone!
Bitch about the new activation 2 year contract though. Shame for the Amercians who want an iPhone

HD Versions look so geeky shexual xD

UNNECESARY

It was before the link was up; most people do not read through the entire thread to look for information; therefore I believe it is necessary.

BTW you spelled "necessary" incorrectly.
