The soccer one would have been better if the N900 that pops up at the end said, "Thank you for your online ticket order" ... It isn't clear from the commercial how the N900 would have helped him here, since all you see is the same "Sold out" on the N900's screen...

The tragic part is that if he actually had an n900 and was "online all the time", his n900 would we out of juice by the time he woke up.

Turns out the ads are not by Nokia after all, and there's still one more to come...

Makes sense now...

And to all those Europeans out there that "got" what "Nokia" was doing with this.... "get" this. :p

I did like the ads quite some. The subtle message (which is not very american sense of humour) and the humour of situations in which the guy falls behind since he is not connected has a message. But again this is not in-your-face style of advertising - which I like.

...and BTW, I'm from Philadelphia. We find humor in everything, we kind of have to... So yo, humor this. (grabs crotch) :D

I think Benny might be on to something... it may be an attempt to establish this "sleeping man" character to make us want to see what he is up to next. However, like the MS spots with Gates, they run the risk that we might not care... This could happen if the ads are produced by someone who does not truly understand the user experience, imho.
With the N900, you can easily read the news when such a phenomenon is excepted. If he'd have an N900, then he'd know about it.

Or the N900 simply is a fish-attractor. :D
