Apple posts ‘Hallway’ iPhone 3G TV ad
Apple has posted its new iPhone 3G TV advertisement, named “Hallway.” First shown during today’s WWDC keynote address, the ad features a spy theme, with a mysterious package being moved down a hallway, and opened up to reveal an iPhone 3G. The narration says: “It’s finally here: the first phone to beat the iPhone. It surfs the web and downloads data twice as fast, for half the price. Introducing the new iPhone 3G.” The video is available for viewing now on Apple’s web site.

Typo in the description. Says “quite” instead of “twice” (as fast). Thanks for posting this gorgeous clip from the ad!

This ad is made oh so much cooler by the fact that it is using the voice of Stephen Hill of Hears Of Space Radio and Records fame.
Enjoy Space Fans!!!!!!!
