WOW Best Buy, I didn't know the iPod Touch has 3G...

[Vandam500]

Navigating Best Buy's website and look what I found on the main page, the 3rd slide:




Hmmm, I could of sworn it was a Wifi only device

 

[jmann]

I don't see anything..

 

[iBookG4user]

I don't see anything..

The picture shown is of the iPod Touch because it is missing the top speaker. And it shows it being on AT&T and a 3G connection.

 

[SAG3194]

I see it! ahahahah!

 

[Vandam500]

I don't see anything..

Rofl

 

[uberamd]

Ah I get it. No speaker = iPod Touch. Wow... I really thought all advertisements were unedited photos... not. Welcome to advertising, a photoshop world.

 

[Vandam500]

I see a AT&T 3G/S iPhone....

Wow, Come on!!! Where is the speaker on the top!!! How can you not see that!!!!!!

 

[samcraig]

bad photoshop. The screen is added on later - and obviously - the wrong one added.

 

[uberamd]

Wow, Come on!!! Where is the speaker on the top!!! How can you not see that!!!!!!

Because honestly unless I was really looking for a reason to rip an ad apart, I wouldn't even care to spend more than 1 second glancing at it.

 

[SpaceMagic]

Unless this is a new device

3G iPod Touch.. data only. The telecoms could make some money from it... iProd 1,1???

Doesn't hide the fact that it's false advertising Poor people buying the iPod Touch thinking there gonna get 3G internet

Haha... nice find... fail on Best Buy's part

It doesn't say its an iPod Touch, and the fact that it says AT&T in the corner indicates that it isn't. This isn't false advertising.

Barring the fact that it says use "bestbuy on your mobile phone" next to the image, are you?

Most people that noticed all those details would not think that, since they'd know already what the Touch can and can not do.

Nah, they're clearly showing you an iPhone without a speaker. The text says "Mobile Phone" doesn't it?

So you try to buy it and find you actually DO get a speaker!

Who's gonna complain about getting something for free?

Behold the next generation iPod Touch you were the first to see it

hahaha

 

[SFStateStudent]

Definitely the "iProd 1,1" and it looks pretty sweet with 3G.....

 

[MadMacxxx]

boo for Best Buy's web design editors...

 

[Lakerfan210]

I don't think its bad advertising. They're promoting their mobile website for phones. Its not that they're selling you an itouch with 3g capabilities. Someone messed up, no big deal.

usually for legal purposes they cannot make it look like an iphone! its strange, for instance on tv shows when they have iphones all the sounds and clicks arent actually on the phone! so i came to the conclusion it is legal stuff and they probably didnt have time to get permission or didnt care too much
