Boy the UK's Advertising Standards Authority is a stickler on advertising accuracy. Hence why they have pulled the latest Apple iPhone ad, that says "all the parts of the internet are on the iPhone." Well the ASA says that it's not entirely true, and I have to agree to a certain point. Check the quote:
"Because the iPhone doesn't support Flash or Java, you couldn't really see the internet in its full glory...[Apple] made a very general claim that you can see the internet in its entirety, and actually that's not quite true - so we've upheld."
Apple argues that what they mean is that the iphone can access any webpage, not appearance. What I'm curious about is when Apple will make flash and Java work with the iPhone?
