Verizon/Droid ad aimed at iPhone appears

As promised, Verizon unveiled an ad in tonight’s Yankees-Angels game aimed pretty squarely at the iPhone.  It is interesting to remember that the Motorola ROKR had Apple iTunes software on it three years ago… and Apple was negotiating to put the iPhone on Verizon (never gonna happen now!) at about the same time.

It also looks like George Lucas is getting some Droid money.  You’ll notice a  “DROID is a trademark of Lucasfilm Ltd. and its related companies. Used under license.” in the materials.

Update: Keep an eye on those apostrophes in "iDon’t".  Classy.

They also have a website – DroidDoes.com.
