Looks like the build up to next Friday’s iPhone launch is really starting to take shape. after stumbling around the internet this afternoon when i really should have been working I saw that apple had posted these new iPhone Ads aimed at the UK audience. my personal favorite is this one for youtube. a feature that I had kind of forgotten about.

to look at the lest of the ads click here.

The following is taken from the offical PR release:

CUPERTINO, California—October 30, 2007—Apple® today announced that it sold (or delivered in the case of maintenance agreements) over two million copies of Mac OS® X Leopard since its release on Friday, far outpacing the first-weekend sales of Mac OS X Tiger, which was previously the most successful OS release in Apple’s history. Sales included copies sold at Apple’s retail stores, Apple Authorized Resellers, the online Apple Store®, under maintenance agreements and bundled with new Mac® computers. Leopard is the sixth major release of Mac OS X and is packed with more than 300 new features. Continue reading »

Today i’m off on Safari, * yes sorry about the pun * Rumor has it that a leopard has been seen not far from my current location. See evidence below:

The current location of the leopard is subject to change, and it may still take me a few hours to catch up with it.

I’ll be sure to take pictures when we meet hopefully later this morning.

For those of you also hunting big cats today, I wish you the best of luck and Good Hunting — Crikey!!

Direct from the Apple Retail Store Page:

Leopard arrives Friday, October 26.
The world premiere of Leopard, the biggest upgrade to Mac OS X, is October 26. And on that big day, the Apple Retail Store is the place to be. Join us from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. and be the first to experience the world’s most advanced operating system. And if you’re one of the first 500 guests, you’ll go home with a special edition Leopard T-shirt. See you there.
