AT&T Cingular warning on Dropped Calls

AT&T/Cingular reminds us how important it is to have continuous coverage while we’re on a phone call with ‘Butcher’, an award-winning television commercial.

Cingular Butcher

A butcher phones an acquaintance to order fifty pounds of roast beef. His attempt at humour works fine but the line goes dead before he gets to hear the laughter. “A dropped call can ruin a conversation”. The Butcher ad, with others in the campaign, has led to a spate of spoofs.
