I though the same thing. The recreation wasn't anything like the ad. I tried a little recreation myself, but I actually just did something as similar to the ad as I could. I did use my home wi-fi. I already had a Google page loaded into Safari, so maybe that was cheating. I started from the home page, opened up Safari, double tapped to zoom in, followed a link, then closed the browser, opened up Google maps and hit the GPS button. As soon as it found me, I closed it and opened my email. I already had that account open and the email I wanted at the top of my inbox. I opened the email and opened the attachment. That all took me about 35 seconds. I didn't receive a call because I didn't have anyone to call me right at that second, but still, IMHO, the ad is NOT misleading at all. The phone IS that fast. It can browse pages and open and close programs as fast as is shown in the commercial.

I thought the Garden of Eden was somewhere in the Middle East.
