No details about the device appeared in the ad. According to the Los Angeles Times, each 30-second spot during the broadcast cost advertisers $US1.7 million.

Apple's '1984' commercial produced by Ridley Scott for the Macintosh's debut was only broadcast during the Super Bowl. The iPhone ad can be seen at Apple's web site.{moscomment} |
