Apple’s iPhone Ad: No Relation!
November 23, 2009Taking a little break from my real job this holiday season, I checked out the new ads from Apple, which are trying to show it’s got AT&T’s back in its commercial slap-down against Verizon. Thanks to the post on BusinessWeek I was watching the second new ad when I did a spit-take, seeing who the ficticious “friend” was on the phone: Cousin Ted?

Actually, I don’t have a cousin Ted (to my knowledge) and if you look closely you see the ficticious name is spelled KAPUSTA, not KAPUSTKA. So a close call, but please — no more phone calls, emails and tweets! There’s simply no relation!
(And the first person who posts a comment who can explain the difference in Polish between KAPUSTA and KAPUSTKA wins a free SIDECUT NTK report. Family members and Sidecut staff not eligible.)
