I thought that was pretty funny. But I think my favorite is that hiring negotiation.

Call me a moron, but why are they talking into their phones when they're face to face?

because they're trying to say that with nextel's you can communicate faster, so you'll get right to the point and get things done.
Which is stupid if the people are right there.

I think it's a good advertising campaign. I laughed when I saw that commercial; it reminded me of the hax0r stick-people Flash version..

I'm definitely rolling in laughter at their "wedding" commercial

Main reason being, one Sunday my paster had an excellent message on communication, and there was a skit something like that. :)

Ah, Nextel. Gotta love 'em.

Saw it last night, better than the other ones, but, annoying still. Who uses that radio feature anyway... other than contractors and building folks... I've never seen any kids or professionals using 'em like they commercials.

It seems that's who they are marketing them towards...

Yes, most contractors and "building folks" do use Nextel services. Also, most of the schools around here use Nextel for all of the administrators/secretaries/support personnel. Many of the computer/IT companies around here use Nextel. I know several law firms that use Nextel.
