Apple posts two new iPhone ads

Apple has posted two new iPhone ads tonight. Both ads seem to target Joe Average and spotlight situations we find ourselves in every day.

The first, called "First Steps," targets moms and grandparents who want to show/never miss a single moment of the new tyke's life. The mom uses the iPhone 3GS to record her son's first steps, sends the video file as a MMS, and then starts a conference call with the grandparents to talk about the video. The ad ends with the mom saying "We would never have shared all that without the iPhone."

The second ad is titled "On Hold" and presents a situation we're all too familiar with. A man calls 1-800-204-7450 and is put on hold (before you try, I already called the number. A voicemail answers that says "At the tone, please record your message." I didn't leave one). The man then checks his email, pays a credit card bill, buys Monopoly from the App Store, and plays the game -- all while on hold.

As always, the apps spotlighted in the ads can be found here.
