I really think you could make something of that.

Imagine a video along the lines of.......

Young guy (should look good, but more in terms of cute/innocent than sexually attractive) in 3-4 situations where he stands in a group of people: bus stop, in a train, traffic light waiting to cross the street... - The situations tell a story of him clearly moving somewhere, we'll find out later he has a date with his girlfriend.

All this time, you never see anything below the waistline. (Well, we could do one shot that shows him from behind...)
What you do see, though, is people (elderly ladies, a group of giggling teenage girls, ...) pointing at his crotch, excited, whispering, curious, big eyes. The guy never seems to notice.

Finally, he meets his girlfriend (she has to be attractive in this spot ) who greets him with a broad smile, looking down where all the others looked at before: "Is this the internet in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?"
Now we finally get to see what it's all about. It's not an obscene bulge (as some dirty minds might have expected), but a myriad of colors, website-thumbnails, note-symbols, chat-smilies etc. crowding around the pocket of his jeans in a colorful, cartoon-esque style. the whole pocket might even pulsate to the beat of inaudible music (which, in fact, would make it look a little obscene ...)

Next thing we see is that, while she kisses him hello, her hand moves deep into his front pocket.

Then we see the two of them sitting close to each other (on stairs or whatever is where they met), she holds the N900 (same colors, images, note-symbols, smilies etc as before emerging from the device) and is totally in love with it and lost in another world, while he sits beside her, rolling his eyes with a fatalistic/patronizing kind of "oh, here we go again...! But it's ok, I understand" expression on his face.

Same shot again, this time from a little distance, "N900" written on the screen while a male voice says: "It's the internet in your pocket. Put up with it."


I would like it.
