Two New iPhone 3GS TV Spots Debut

It’s that time again, when two new iPhone 3GS TV ads appear!  Played during the Winter Olympics coverage last night, these are not further entries into the ‘There’s an app for that’ canon, but standalone spots showing versatility.

The first has been named On Hold, and is the more interesting of the two, for it appears to attack the well-publicized ‘no multi-tasking’ disadvantage to the iPhone.  It does this cleverly, as to the regular person who is shopping for a new phone, the phrase no multi-tasking sounds very final – one thing at a time ONLY – but the fact is it probably won’t affect them greatly during day-to-day use  This advert indicates the iPhone can do more than one thing at once:

Of course, this isn’t multi-tasking as we expect it, but most won’t care!

The second spot is called First Steps and attracts customers by using that old favorite, a video of a cute baby falling over.

Enjoy!
