CBS, Pepsi Create Video Ad to Run in Print

To promote the upcoming season of The Big Bang Teory, CBS and Pepsi have come up with a pretty innovative advertising ploy:

“CBS will insert a paper-thin interactive video player into copies of the Sept. 18 issue of Time Inc.’s Entertainment Weekly sent to Los Angeles- and New York-area subscribers. The issue previews the 2009-2010 TV season. As part of a unique marketing partnership, PepsiCo will join with CBS to promote its Pepsi Max diet cola for men in the print ads and sponsor the fall debut of CBS’s Monday-night comedies on Sept. 21.”

iPhone 3GS sports hidden 720p video playback

Well well what do you know - no sooner do I invest in a new toy that someone discovers a nice little hidden feature:

“With Apple’s new iPhone 3G S hitting store shelves in Europe overnight, the device was thrown within minutes onto the operating table and gutted, revealing a Samsung-branded system-on-a-chip (SoC) featuring a multi-format codec with untapped HD video playback and capture capabilities.”

Now the question is, how does one go about using it?
