New iPhone in new Sex and the City movie?

I think the show was one of the most influential television programmes of the late-nineties/early years of the new millennia; and it certainly pushed feminine equality further than it has been done before.
Until that point, it wasn't the norm that the audience got involved in the urban female side of relationships. I don't remember women talking so openly about sex and love before. Perhaps with Warhol, other artists, Blondie, Lou Reed and the like; NYC already had a scene where the affluent and the trendy could mix. I'm sure, however that the show had a strong influence on NYC's (mostly Manhattan's) reputation as a liveable place.
The other important element was the promotion of gay lifestyle, if there is such a thing. Perhaps with a bit of stereotyping, but Sex and the City gave viewers a hint that gay people are OK.
I saw an old episode a few days ago and I was almost shocked to see, how well Sarah Jessica Parker looked.
Well, you can blame this show or you can blame the rest of the industry. At least these ones tried and made their mark.
Why would a show that encourages women to loosen up and enjoy their life be 'sad'?
For many women, even modern city women they get a degree, get a job, get pregnant, leave job, bring up a baby, go part-time in something that's below their potential. All the SATC girls are in their 40s, and have great jobs, and they enjoy their lives.
I encourage my gf to watch SATC, she loves it fortunately, because it relays to her a sense of boldness. That she doesn't have to get married and have a baby right now.
For many men, even modern city men they get a degree, get a job, get iPhone, leave girlfriend, bring up their iPhone, go party-time
alright, we are coming up on 2am... somebody has to have taken a snapshot with their 3gs and should be uploading it from their phone... otherwise this means that.... (gulp), they are actually WATCHING IT!
My Wife is going to see it tomorrow so I'll ask her to check it out...
Only problem is she probably notice as she'll be too busy looking at all the 'la bootins', 'geenas' or 'versachys' or whatever that **** is they wear!

So I went to see the midnight show last night with my girlfriend and I could positively 100% say that this rumor is both false and stupid. Anyone can clearly see that its an iphone 3GS with one of those silicone cases on it. In fact at some points during the movie there are close-ups on the phone and you can see through the case and clearly see its a 3GS. The phone also falls on the ground and you see the front... again clearly a 3GS.... At no point do they say the words "new iphone"......... just "my iphone"..... So the guy who tweeted this or wrote this article was either trying to generate buzz or is a complete moron.
Case Closed.

So the movie was pretty awesome huh?
LOL I had to take one for the team, Girlfriend's female friends bailed on her at the last minute and she already had 2 tickets. Didn't want her going to the theater alone at 12am in NYC.
Guess the reviewer was trying to create Hype for himself and does not know what he is talking about.
I am sure he added a few people to his twitter account by saying that, but now that they know he lied or was mistaken he may lose a few as well.
Case Closed
I think its less to do with you posting this and more to do with how adamant you are that this film reviewer is correct.
You sir, deserve a medal or commendation for taking one for the team! After hearing this news, I was able to fake being sick so she would take one of her friends to that s**t fest.
Seriously, what are you, 13? Grow up. I was half expecting a "Na na na na boo boo" out of you.
