Motorola pokes fun at Apple in “No Jacket Required” advert
I’m not sure how social network related this post actually is, but I suppose both Android and the iPhone are heavily Social Network Centric now. I just came across this advert that Motorola are currently running which appears to poke fun at the ‘Antenna-gate’ difficulties that Apple have been having when you short the two external antennas of the iPhone.
The advert very cleverly highlights the ‘reported’ shortcoming related to the big problems Apple reportedly had with the iPhone antenna. Quoting Motorola in the advert “At Motorola we believe a customer shouldn’t have to dress up their phone for it to work properly. Thats why the DROID X(tm) comes with a dual antenna design. The kind that allows you to hold the phone any way you like to make crystal clear calls without a bulky phone jacket. For us it’s just one of those things that comes as a given when you’ve been making mobile phones for over 30 years”
Does it sound like sour grapes? Remember the Motorola Rokr which was Apple’s first entry into the mobile phone market, this was before Apple went alone and proceeded to dominate the smart phone marketplace.
