phone/internet commercials
(see also apps & software)

For any communications companies for which I don't have a lot of ads, including service providers and phones themselves. AT&T, iPhone, MCI, Samsung, Sprint, T-Mobile, US Cellular, and Verizon have their own pages.


Alltel
Here's an ad featuring look-alikes of characters from various other phone companies' commercials.


Android
"Friends Furever" (an adorable ad featuring the song "Oo-De-Lally" by Roger Miller); Rock Paper Scissors (the first time I saw that on TV, I didn't get it, but the second time I thought it was pretty funny; of course if I'd known the title of the ad, I would have gotten it immediately).


Boost Mobile
A cute ad featuring a man and some singing puppets.


Cingular
BFF Jill; BFF Rose; Mother Love; Creepy GoPhone ad


HTC
An ad narrated by Robert Downey Jr., the message of which ("we're all one") I find rather beautiful.


Motorola
I feel like I probably saw at least one other "Hello Moto" ad, but this is the only one I could find. So maybe I'm wrong.


Net10 Wireless
Peer pressure; Fountain of Youth


Nokia
I'm surprised I don't have more ads here for Nokia, but I guess I can't think of any older ones right now. But here's an ad for Windows Phone, which mocks the rivalry between iPhone and Samsung Galaxy. Then a similar ad (a longer version than I've seen on TV). It's basically the same joke, so it's less funny the second time. But I do like the kids' play, and the actress at the end of the ad (Robin Long) is awfully easy on the eyes.


Palm Prē (playlist)
A lot of people found these ads creepy. And I totally get that, but I kinda liked them, anyway. (Actually, the first ad is just cool; the subsequent ads are the creepy ones.)


Time Warner Cable
Here's an ad featuring a couple of cute girls, a malfunctioning washing machine, and the computer that lets them video chat with one of the girls' dad.


Virgin Mobile
This is just weird. But um, I feel like there was a different commercial I saw that was similarly weird, with the random exclamation "hot lava!" But maybe I'm wrong, maybe this was the only such ad. I dunno. Then there's a compilation of two ads featuring the scary crazy (but hot) chick who's stalking her date. Then a "retrain your brain" ad, just because there are so many reasons I wish I could retrain my brain to let me have things I want but don't feel I deserve. Yeah, I dunno if Virgin Mobile is one of those things, but at least I like the concept.
