Default Helo, I'm a Zune, and I'm an iPhone ...

How about this for an add ...

Hello, I'm a zune (looking like a dork, and jamming out to his Zune), and I'm an iPhone.

Nice, what all can you do on that Zune ...

As he is talking about useless things, the cell phone in his pocket rings. He then fumbles around trying to get it out of his pocket, and eventually drops the Zune and his cell phone, ruining both of them.

The Apple guy then gets a call and starts talking just be clicking on his headphone switch.

I think it would make for a very compelling ad.

Clever premise, but I don't really think that the Zune and the iPhone are viewed as competitors. I mean, the Zune isn't a phone and comparing it to an iPhone really isn't fair.

Now, if iPhone was compared to another smart phone in a similar advertisement, it might make a bit more sense.

I see your point, but I still think it would have broad appeal since Microsoft doesn't actually build a phone, and the Zune is such a big fat clunker.

Hey now...

Yeah the Zune is fat, and the wifi is useless, and there's no gapless playback or lossless support, and there's no HD support, and there's no updates...

But it's not as bad as all the Apple Fanboys like to make it out to be.

I love my Zune. And my iPhone.

How about, I'm an iPhone, I'm overpriced. I have no real storage, but I look cool...

How about this;

Im a Treo and Im an Iphone.

The treo is listening to music and taking phone calls just like the iphone. Then the treo gets into a car, turns on Tom Tom Nav and starts driving around strange places without a worry. At the same time the iphone gets into a car, loads google maps and realizes he's skrewed because google maps is actually worthless.

That would be really funny.

Wow. Summer camp must be on vacation, because all the iPhone haters don't have anything to do but to come to an iPhone forum and talk trash. Hopefully the rage will subside when Power Rangers come on.
