Like everyone else, Apple is getting into the holiday spirit with their latest iPhone ad for the twelve days of Christmas. The advertisement this time, with the same perfect hand, simply goes through a dozen or so iPhone applications to an altered version of the traditional Christmas song. As usual, it is pretty clever in the wording and applications chosen.

With two new iPhone ads this week, Apple is pushing the file sharing and traveling abilities of the iPhone. In the first ad, entitled “Travel,” that strangely familiar hand and voice details the ability of some applications to help you tour areas of the world or simply find your way around using a subway map. The second of the two advertisements is titled “Share,” and details the ways the iPhone can help people share information.

Apple has a new iPhone TV advertisement that touts the new editing capabilities of the iPhone 3GS. The commercial consists of a person recording a skateboarder, followed by cutting out the end of the video clip where the skateboarder falls. The iPhone user then continues to email the video to a friend. Again, it is very well made.

Apple has released yet another iPod Touch advertisement. As is typical of all Apple iPhone and iPod Touch ads, this one features that perfect hand on a white background with nothing but the iPod Touch. This time around the ad has been titled “More Fun” and contains the background music of Franz Ferdinand’s “No You Girls” (look to see that one on the iTunes list any day now). The ad focuses on the concept of gaming again and features a variety of games on the App Store.

The Advertising Standards Authority in the U.K. has banned an Apple iPhone 3G due to complaints from a whopping seventeen people. The ad in question promoted the speed of the iPhone 3G, saying, “So, what’s so great about 3G? It’s what helps you get the news, really fast. Find your way, really fast. And download more »

Last week, Apple released a new ad called Dilemmas that featured the Urbanspoon restaurant finding application. This week, Apple has released two more ads to go along with their line of App Store ads. The first one features Loopt and discusses how it will allow you to always know where your friends are and what they are up to. The second one features Shazam, an application that allows you to put your iPhone up to a speaker and find out what song is playing. Two very good choices if you ask me.

Apple has created another one of their creative and beautifully carried out ads for the iPhone 3G. This time around, the commercial is called “Dilemmas,” and it features UrbanSpoon’s popular dining app that helps users find a place to eat with a simple shake. Toting the iPhone’s ability to help solve all sorts of dilemmas, it also gives credit to the apps that have been created by saying that the iPhone does this “one app at a time.” It once again has that all so familiar voice with the perfectly molded hand.

There’s never a lack of things to do for the UK’s Advertising Standards Authority. For instance, very recently they had to deal with the very pressing matter of banning an ad that was already off the air.
