The First Phone Commercial
The iPhone has become one of the hottest gadgets the past two years.

But does anyone remember the first iPhone commercial? The commercial where no one understand what it was really supposed to be and thought there was no way an Apple phone could ever be as good as what was on the market. Well, here is a look back on the first commercial that aired for the iPhone.

Do you remember this commercial from the Oscars two years ago? Has the iPhone become the gold standard when it comes to touch screen smart phones?

Bonus points if you could name some of the movies and shows in the commercial.

Only movie I could recognize was The Big Lebowski.

The Flintstones, I Love Lucy, Sex and the City, Charlie's Angels, The Honeymooners, Gone With the Wind (I saw Rhett Butler lol), Back to the Future, Meet the Fockers?, Shaft?, Zoolander, The Incredibles, All the President's Men?, Anchorman?

p.s. That commercial really made no sense lol. but yes the iPhone has pretty much trumped all other smart phones. They're even more popular than the Blackberry which I find impressive.
