Cellphone popcorn video was a HOAX

I saw this today and remembered there was a thread about this within the past month, thought I would share

I forgot all about this! I DID conduct the experiment, and it failed, 8 cell phones’ worth of failure.

I don’t understand advertisments that have nothing to do with the product, though certainly enough of us surfed to see their fake video

I think the reporter asked the company rep that question. Can’t remember what her response was, although I remember thinking it was a lame response.

Heh…I think it’s ironic that the original thread was 3 pages long, yet barely anyone is interested in this one.

The TV news channels got one thing right…sensationalism really does attract more attention than the facts…
