yah could someone please post a working link up or Where can you download it ?

Download? iTune Music Store.

This was a good idea for a skit, but it fell flat. It should have been side splitting funny, instead I think we all cracked a small smile while watching it.

Have you watched SNL in the last 5 years?

I would never discribe it as "side splittingly funny".

 

[pflau]

the ad is STILL on NBC's video-on-demand site!!!

I'm pretty sure it was a direct assault on Apple given that NBC started HULU and is pulling out of iTunes... I thought it was OK though.

That's what I mean, just a typical boring SNL skit.

That was hilarious.

Sending pictures of various body parts or "funny pictures" is a good part of the phone business at least where I live. Too bad the iPhone doesn't do MMS

Thanks for that; took a while to download though... I guess because it's actually 1920x1080 and 60MB (!!).

I'll throw up a lower resolution h.264 mirror in a few.

That finally clears up that it does indeed say "No Service" and not some other carrier too.

3.6MB, 640x360, H.264

It's definitely jailbroken, I wonder what app is installed, but it is not necessarily unlocked, I think it says No Service where mine says AT&T

 

[MacTO]

Funny ad-to-be... SNL like.

Cheers.

It's installer.app.. and yes, it says no service:

brings back memories of the short lived ipod invisa "holds every picture ever taken" is the funniest concept/joke ever.

Fair Use

I'm not a lawyer, but, being a short clip from SNL, how does this not count as fair use, legally speaking? I know Google pulls things soon as anyone says word their content has been posted, but this was a short 30 second clip, not the entire episode of SNL. So, my understanding of fair-use is that it can be reproduced w/o content producers permission. Is this correct, even for a thirty second clip???

I think you meant 25 years.

SNL's last glory days was the mid 90s (they even have done an "SNL in the 90s" special) after guys like Carvey, Hartman, Farley, Sandler etc were long gone. They have yet to really recapture that.
