Who is that guy in them AT&T cell phone commercials?
In the latest ad campaign. Has short brown hair, speaks kind of breathely, goes on about maps and tosses post cards around a floor map.

On a side note, I hate those commercials.
AT&T should spend money expanding their service, not advertising it.
Thanks, I really had no idea who that was, but assumed he was famous or something. Despite seeing Dog Park, I still have no idea who he is, but the ad is on now during a CSI:Miami show, my first time watching any CSI as an aside.
The star of Idiocracy.
Perfect for AT&T.
He’s the perfect everyman in any movie. A modern day Jimmy Stewart and quite a good actor.
Actually, that was a surprisingly good movie.
It had a point of view and wasn’t afraid to take it to it’s logical extreme :)
I’ve never had troubles with AT&T’s service. Not in Hawaii, New York, or even back woods Alabama.
Don’t believe either campaign. You can generally use any cell tower ( I believe ), as I’ve been in blank areas for both providers and still had service.
As a tech who often works in cell phone towers, I will tell you @Shield_of_Achilles is absolutely wrong here about using any cell tower.
But he is right about not believing either campaign.
33 years of phone company experience, with 22 in the high tech side says your b. is where you get your information.
Ok?
I already owned up to being wrong, and I do believe I said it was only what I thought, not what I knew.
But thanks for shoving your resume in my face, I really enjoyed it.
(Mom said to always play devils advocate…. My b = My bad. As in, I’m sorry.
My mistake. I thought you were saying “my butt”, like you were right, and I was wrong. Sorry for being harsh.

The previous misunderstanding is a perfect example of why Fluther (as a whole) discourages the use of txtspeak. You knew what you meant, but obviously others did not.
Is it REALLY all that difficult to type out two extra little letters (ad) for the sake of clarity ? How difficult could it possibly be :D
@Buttonstc “my b” isnt just text speak. Its actually considered to be part of the BEV. I’m sorry to confuse. Being in New York for this long has influenced me more than I thought it would.
Black English Vernacular.
And no one is allowed to get offended by that. It’s the proper way to say it.

Perfect example of why the emoticon is necessary in the online venue. When in doubt clarify or ask for clarification. Peace.
