So the OP owns an iPad, an iPhone 3G, an iMac, and hates Apple.

Hmmm... I remember an econ prof telling us to vote with our dollars, seems you're boarding the failboat on a cruise to failville amdhunter...

I don't hate Apple. I hate how they portray (and even encourage) douchebags as their primary consumer base.

the irony knocked me out of my chair leaving the scent of massengil in the air!

What's so idiotic about the commercial isn't the message. It's that a joyous moment like that should be shared in person, NOT over the phone even if it's video.

I just hate they are seemingly trying to infer the soldier is in iraq/afghanistan, since most people have no idea he would be anywhere else if hes deployed

Jesus christ, are all your opinions turned up to 100%? You are exactly like a regular Rush Limbaugh.

How are you going to make it to the doctors appointments when you are deployed overseas?

I love it, Apple produces the holy grail, video chat with a phone and the internet basement dwellers rage that people use it.

Many other phones do it, and can do it without the need of a wifi connection, it's just that the commercials suck.

 

[JJChicken]

Android users could probably do the same thing, but they'd never get laid in the first place

double zing!

It better be good quality since you can only use Facetime over Wifi. Guess the iPhone can't handle it but certain other phones can handle video-chat over cell networks just fine.

fring works on the iphone, and jailbroken phones can run facetime on wifi as well

Jailbroken doesn't count as the average person won't do that and they're touting Facetime in the commercials. I always love how iPhone people say well jailbreak it and you can do that. Modding your phone never counts and is a sad excuse to do things.

i know, i just meant to show that it can "handle" it, just dumb apple won't allow it for no reason whatsoever.

How about AT&T won't allow it because their 3G network is crap? If Apple & AT&T allowed FaceTalk over 3G via the next iOS update AT&T's already shitty network would take an even bigger dump. I think people who dislike Apple really underestimate just how many iPhone 4 users would use FaceTalk over 3G if they could. So yeah, I'd say there's a good reason they won't allow it.

 

[marvdmartian]

this commercial took my hatred of apple to a new level


I wish it would have been sad news like, You know that thing we've been working on? Well..... We can't afford it, after buying all this Apple crap!!!"

that would be much more realistic

FIXED :sneaky:

 

[theprodigalrebel]

That's as bad as some Microsoft commercials.

I gotta admit, I've been impressed with the quality of TFP's troll posts lately. Sure, playing the part of an Apple fanboy is a bit obvious, but at least he's putting out some quality stuff now! Rock on, man!

agreed. I think few recognize the brilliant subtlety of a well-crafted TFP post.

i just wish his brojob rates wood go down.

Are you trying to say that apple users have more sex? Link?

 

[CallMeJoe]

This is what I'm talking about. PC nerds just can't accept the truth, so they immediately begin with the ad hominem attacks and insults. It's sad, really, watching grown men proudly flaunting their ignorance for all the world to see. I'm glad I'll never know what its like to be such a fool.
