Who's the little girl again?

Samsung has this viral image ad up on YouTube (tip o’ the antlers to Leo Laporte) of a little girl dancing and then all the adults follow along.

It’s a cute ad but the metaphor reminded the Macalope of nothing more than the point Marco Arment makes here. The “adult” handset manufacturers were churning out pieces of crap and then along came the iPhone. Apple just walked in and started a dance that everyone else has spent the last three and a half years trying to move to.

That probably wasn’t the image they were going for.
