new commercial

I just saw a new one during the Chargers - Broncos game on CBS. A guy is talking about how he went with his girlfriend to eat dinner with her boss and new fiance. She couldn't remember her name, so the boyfriend looked it up real quick on his iPhone since they had their wedding website and saved the confusion.
The new ads appear like they were set up on a street corner with a black backdrop and people can come up and talk about their iPhone and the use they get out of it in everyday situations. Not sure if they really allow that or if they just want us to think that's what happened and they are really actors, but that would be cool to be in an Apple commercial! I could talk about endless situations that the iPhone has helped in my own life. I think this style of advertisement has the potential to be very successful for Apple and will attract more "regular" people. Anyone seen one of these set up or interviewed for a commercial?

Third Ad Shows Young Man Explaining How iPhone Helped Find A Name On A Website

I think the new commercials are good. Everyone - at least those that care - know what the iphone can do. The commercials demonstrate practical applications for the phone's use.
Think of how many times you've pulled to the side of the road, googled a restaurant, mapped it, called it and were dining in 5 minutes. Happened to us just last night in Santa Fe. That's a practical commercial right there.

Look, Im not questioning anyones love for Apple. But lets not get carried away with the fanboyism. The camera 1) has no flash 2) has a crappy shutter speed, especially in low light situations 3) has no zoom 4) is 2mp, most likely interpolated.
So to say the iPhones cam is as good as another digital camera is just flat not true.
And yes, these commercials are self-serving to Apple. I realize they have a product to push. But that doesnt mean that criticisms (such as mine) of those commercials are not without merit.

I Have 2 Of Them Recorded Full HD
That's my count as well. I have 2 of them recorded in 1920 x 1080 p with my EyeTV. Waiting for the third one to come back on CBS about visual voice mail.There is more than 1, I have seen 3 today on Fox watching NFL
Anything New Looks "Revolutionary" To Me
I am easily amused. New toilet paper looks revolutionary to me.
Just saw the visual voicemail one on the Charger / Denver game on CBS. I like the change from the original series.
Good marketing change. Keeps things fresh.

Anyone who uses a cellphone as a camera doesn't understand photography.
I use a Canon Digital SLR when I want a good picture on vacation,
but on my last trip I shot a lot of pics with my iPhone as well and was very surprised by the quality once I viewed them on my Macbook. With a lot of light, steady hands and good subjects it does pretty well.

I saw all three while watching the Pats win starting in the first quarter with the visual vm ad.
Go Pats (5-0)!
Go Pats (5-0)!
Maybe the English accented ones in a couple of months will seem less scripted
They will definitely be a big departure from the usual O2 ads...
