Apple Posts Xmas iPhone Ad

Apple is airing a new iPhone 3GS television commercial in the US. Entitled "12 Apps of Xmas," the ad features poetry and praises the newest iPhone available. Apple also suggests that owning an iPhone is great around the holidays, as the developers responsible for the apps you carry around with you are feeling generous. Posted below are the very lyrics from Apple’s latest iPhone ad.

On the twelfth day of Christmas my iPhone gave to me:
Twelve cookies cooking
Eleven cards a sending
Ten gifts for giving
Nine songs for singing
Eight bells for ringing
Seven slopes of skiing
Six games for playing
Five gold rings
Four hot lattes
Three flights home
Two feet of snow
And an app that can light up the tree.

Last month, Apple aired three new ads showing off not only the capabilities of its iPhone 3GS, but also lauding AT&T’s network. The Mac maker also confirmed at the time that there were over 100,000 applications to choose from in the App Store, for both iPhone and iPod touch. Praising AT&T’s networking capabilities, Apple’s ads showed some of the things the iPhone could do simultaneously. In addition to showing off the great features of the iPhone 3GS, two of the three spots (Multi-People, Where’s the Movie, and Gift) end with Apple asking, “Can your phone and your network do that?”

Apple also offers a direct link to iTunes, where those who watched the iPhone commercials can choose to download the apps featured in the ads.
