I hope for Apple's sake that their phone designing skills aren't at the same level as their ability to write a web page. I couldn't play those ads in the browser: I kept getting sent to a page where I was invited to download QuickTime, even though I'd updated to the most recent version just a few days ago. In the end, I had to view the page source, find the URL of the mov file and paste it directly into QuickTime. (I can't say it was worth the effort.)
Whatever happened to "it just works"?

That would be a problem with your system, not apple's webpage.

I had the same thing happen (Firefox under XP).
Latest quicktime, apple site, no video displayed, just the 'get quicktime' link.
I'm not sure what the problem was.
But, I hit a different quality link and it began to work properly (play video). It worked for all three ads, even after I went back to the original quality setting.
I think the plug-in just wasn't initializing properly. The 'get quicktime' link displays while it's loading as well. It's possible that it's trying to phone-home and was just timing out or going particularly slow due the traffic.

I might be mistaken, but I don't think the original post was saying that the IT is lacking things that the iPhone has... I think it was suggesting that Nokia needs to advertise more. Which, I agree with.
Slightly, OT... I saw an N800 on the back of the latest TigerDirect.com catalog.

No, the intention of the thread is that ' things' (switching between different apps, different modes (horizontal, vertical) are very (very, very) smooth and fast.
On my 770, switching between apps, starting up new apps, goes very slowly
