Seen any Apple adverts recently?

In fact, any phone or computer adverts - just this morning I saw an advert for the intel core i5, which promised me that having one in my PC would enable me to experience images like never before...

Hmmmm...

Either that, or adverts will boast a feature common to lots of devices but maybe less known, so everyone will go 'Ooooh with the xPhone I can do xxxx' so I'm going to buy one of those instead of the yPhone'...

Does this happen with windows mobile or the iPhone? Actually what seems to happen is a 'mobile version' of PC software is made, which bears little resemblance to the 'full version'

"I've got photoshop on my phone!"

"No you haven't."
