Um, the "hello, hello, hello" idea is because each "hello" is from a famous or popular movie.
And it was made specifically for the Academy Awards... which is celebrating Movies.
This wouldn't be their regular ad promoting a product, it was specifically designed for this program. - evansls, on 10/12/2007, -8/+89It does have wi-fi
- alwaysmc2, on 10/12/2007, -20/+85When will an Apple commercial every say anything about the product?
- greatblackowl, on 10/12/2007, -8/+58The "hello, hello, hello" reminds me of the "wow, wow, wow" in another ad that came out recently.
- ishtiaque, on 10/12/2007, -2/+49"Hello" was the first thing the first mac said publicly. Nice homage to its heritage of revolutionary UI from Apple.
- kazem, on 10/12/2007, -10/+52No Wi-Fi? What are you on? And there might be 3rd party apps. It's not even out yet.
- inkswamp, on 10/12/2007, -2/+40Oh *****, you're right. I thought it was a soda pop ad. Thanks for clearing that up.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -24/+59I wasn't going to watch the Oscars, but now I am.
2 years ago I attempted my first suicide, and while I was in recovery I bought my first Apple product. It gave me the will to live and helped me to become a productive member of society. I would never even think of killing myself now, if only because I would miss so many glorious products that Apple will bring us in the future. - se1zure, on 10/12/2007, -4/+34Makes me want the rediculously small zoolander phone.
- Thargok, on 10/12/2007, -4/+33They won't realize it is a phone after the ~87 different phones in the commercial. That's a realistic statement.
- sych0, on 10/12/2007, -1/+29are you kidding me? its got the dude! that alone makes it great
- virtualball, on 10/12/2007, -2/+30Seriously, Apple does a fine job with first party software, it isn't a game console, they don't need Konami to make stuff for them. Currently, I use; FinalCutPro, Pages, Keynote, Safari, Apple Mail and more. I Don't really even need 3rd party apps, except for games, but I don't play those, and even if I did need games, I have a Wii.
It has Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and EDGE. I don't understand what people's fascination with 3G is. I know it's faster, but it has wi-fi, so my school's border-T1 connection is fine for me. And if it is for downloading ringtones and such, use BlueTooth, iTunes, Wi-Fi, or .... ya know, you could wait the extra 30-60 seconds...
Jesus, people hate on it too much. It's a phone, since it is by Apple, people expect it to be f'in perfect. Same thing with the 5G iPod, they unveiled video and a day later they said "So.... when's the new REAL video iPod coming out!?"
I hate people :) - unit101, on 10/12/2007, -4/+30You guys completely missed the point. The "hello" was an homage to the first Macintosh ad.
- TheWorm, on 10/12/2007, -16/+40Youtube is down. Here is Quicktime: http://www.fregtk.com/iPhone%20Ad.mov
Apple has done better. Nothing about this ad really makes me want an iPhone. It borders on annoying."Hello, hello, hello, hello..." - IvanB, on 10/12/2007, -8/+29Should be here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B57RWWg3ROU in a few minutes.
- TravisG5, on 10/12/2007, -6/+27And the reply button is under his comment to the right.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -4/+24HD HERE: http://media.uneasysilence.com/media/ues/iPhoneTeaserAd.mov
- SuperJimmyJimbo, on 10/12/2007, -2/+21what? you mean the 27 hellos won't be a dead giveaway?
- KSUdesigner, on 10/12/2007, -1/+19Everybody thinks about suicide at some point or another. Thing is, bad grades aren't worth killing yourself over. I've yet to find a reason worth actually killing yourself over. If you're so depressed that you're getting bad grades, then do something about it and do your damn homework.
- FregTK, on 10/12/2007, -3/+19Mirror if it is needed: http://www.fregtk.com/iPhone%20Ad.mov
- Sethwm2, on 10/12/2007, -3/+17They had to add in the pixar movie clip at the end XD.. The Incredibles
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+15Tomorrow on Digg: "Digg User Comment Drives a Man to Commit Suicide! AMAZING PICS!!"
- a1lostnomad, on 10/12/2007, -2/+16If the general public doesn't get that it's a phone after a dozen scenes of people saying "hello" on telephones then the world is more ***** up than I thought. Most people I know (anti-techs included) already know about the iPhone. It was featured in nearly every periodical and news cast there is after its unveiling.
- Thargok, on 10/12/2007, -2/+15Read the news. The iPhone name is allowed by both companies as of days ago.
- razorpit, on 10/12/2007, -3/+16Your lack of use of the shift key makes me want to commit suicide.
- mrtorok, on 10/12/2007, -4/+16This reminds me a lot of the Apple ad that ended with a shot of Seinfeld from a few years back:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=jQpzGLKBenc - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+14has it dawned on anyone what irony it is that apple is partnered wit AT&T on this? wasn't jobs' and wozniak's first venture selling a little device called a blue box that could be used to screw with the phone company and make free long distance calls?
- tylerni7, on 10/12/2007, -2/+13I'm digging this just because the video has been uploaded about 10 minutes after it was aired.
At least that means no one can call this a dupe (who am I kidding, I'm sure someone will) - imthe1, on 10/12/2007, -2/+12AT&T, Cingular. It's the same thing
- defectDS, on 10/12/2007, -2/+12You crazy!
- Culled, on 10/12/2007, -3/+13I'm pretty sure he's joking. Either way it's funny. I dugg it up.
- eatrains, on 10/12/2007, -3/+13Are you referring to my 17.3 + 24.7? Yeah, I thought that was pretty sweet.
- indraneel24, on 10/12/2007, -8/+18iPHONE, BITCH!!
- cryptoz, on 10/12/2007, -3/+13Why is he being dugg down? Man, digg users don't know their Slashdot history. It's the classic /. response to the iPod when it was released that's been made fun of every since! Come on people...
EDIT:

That's it. - bigredgpk, on 10/12/2007, -12/+20The ad had an Apple feel to it half way through the commercial. When they displayed the iPhone i had a ***** eating grin in my face and my friends thought i was crazy... maybe i am, but damn it's fun
- inkswamp, on 10/12/2007, -3/+10No kidding! Imagine when Apple Records finally settles with them too.
/sarcasm - kweber103, on 10/12/2007, -3/+10does any one know the song playing in the background?
- Feej, on 10/12/2007, -4/+11Jezuss! - It's just a god damn phone, not the solution for world peace or global warming!
- invader, on 10/12/2007, -3/+10Hmmm.. I was expecting:
"Hi, I'm an iPhone"
"And I'm a dur-dur-dur-Smart Phone!"
Can't say it would have been any worse... - wilhoitm, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Don't worry, Apple is not alone in targetting this audence. Micro$oft played that stupid "Wow" commercial. Wow!
- inspecality, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8Who says "Hello" anymore when answering a phone? I say "Bauer".
- tofslie, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6It is on Apples site.
http://www.apple.com/iphone/hello/ - Thargok, on 10/12/2007, -3/+9There are no legal conflicts with Cisco as mentioned above.
- omaryak, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6The iPod seemed to do pretty well without a replaceable battery. I, for one, am not fond of the plastic door that sometimes falls off of my Motorola.
- MacParrot, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5You DID get that minute of your life back. Unfortunately you wasted it by writing something stupid. Better luck next time!
- xistboi, on 10/12/2007, -9/+14 .
- Character0, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7Brownie points for having the Dude in the ad.
- Thargok, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7Eberg - Inside your head
According to some guy on TUAW - EtherGnat, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5I've been an outspoken critic of iPhone hype (the phone itself is both cool and disappointing) on Digg, but I thought it was a good commercial given the context.
