"A television commercial for the new iPod Touch from Apple, scheduled to begin running on Sunday, 10-28 is being created by the longtime Apple agency, TBWA/Chiat/Day. It is based on a commercial that an 18-year-old English student and Apple devotee named Nick Haley, who says he got his first Macintosh when he was 3 created on his own one day last month," Elliott reports.
"His spot offers a fast-paced tour of the abilities of the iPod Touch, set to a song titled 'Music Is My Hot, Hot Sex' by a Brazilian band, CSS," Elliott reports.
