Default First Windows Phone 7 Ad Hits The Waves

http://www.tmonews.com/2010/09/micr...g-a-revolution/

The symbology is stirking: out of the desert a revolution is coming. The hype is only just beginning, and this one's a good start. Let us know what you think.

Interesting: it is very good till 35/40 secs. After that I am not impressed by the progression of the incoming phone; I am talking about the photgraphy here, with their budget they could have aired Tony Scott.

Also the music is wrong: too slow for the action; it would have been good for camels walking in the desert non an approaching "revolution".

Said that better than average MS spots.

Default Norton reports bad site

When I clicked to link to the page that this was first reported on, namely tmonews, my Norton internet security had a dicky fit, and would not let me see it. It says that tmonews is a bad site.

Both the images and the music is from Lawrence of Arabia; at the time the Jihad was allright and politically correct because it served well Allied interests.
Not my words: T. E. Lawrence states it in " The seven pillars of wisdom: a triumph"...........

As far as I know, tmonews has never been a 'bad' site, perhaps they posted an article once critical of overpriced software
