Did Apple really think it could get away with making a commercial in the middle of the New York City without anyone noticing? The blogosphere is buzzing with rumors that Apple was filming an ad for the 3G iPhone at the company's flagship store on 5th Avenue in New York Thursday night. Bloggers and Apple loyalists streamed to the Apple store in midtown Manhattan Thursday after a message appeared on Apple.com saying the 24-hour location would be shut down from 3 PM until Friday at 9 AM.
Not long after MacRumors posted pictures of the commercial and reported "Apple is actually filming a commercial for the upcoming 3G-capable iPhone with filming to occur inside and around the 5th Avenue store."
According to Silicon Alley Insider the glass cube was freshly polished and gleaming for its starring role.
This shows yet again how you can't get anything past bloggers these days. Just yesterday, rumors were swirling about Dell's mini-Inspiron after it was spotted at the All things D conference and Wired found some screenshots buried in the latest OSX update of what could be the look of the 3G iPhone.
