LG launches an HDTV with a Skype client built-in
We must be one of the UK’s top sources for LG news by now. Thanks to lovely photo opportunities like this, for a telly that does Skype. Probably via Java, but that’s literally just a guess.
This is the MOST UNREALISTIC depiction of internet chat EVER. If you look like that you don’t sit around on the internet talking about, you’re in your local pub doing it.
She’s exaggerating the point. The point is meant to highlight the product’s features, but in this case, is so exaggerated we’re focusing on the point itself. And the minuscule bit of cleavage on the one in black. That’s got to be one of the world’s smallest cleavages.
Three men were on hand to stop everything breaking and ending up on the wrong channel.
Bye, Michael! You can start moving your face again, now.

Also the “MOST UNREALISTIC depiction of internet chat EVER” by dint of the fact that everyone’s fully clothed.
Oh, and would, obviously. Except for Michael. His smile puts me off. Smile on the girl in the first pic seem to be saying to me “looks at what I’m showing off down here, just out of shot”. Michael’s seen it, hence his knowing smile and lack of movement.
As for the 3 men who set it all up, you’d think they could have chosen a better name than “lgskypetv1″ wouldn’t you? Sounds suspiciously like they couldn’t be bothered and left everything set to default after the women accidentally wiped all the customised settings 3 times in a row.

I call ‘photoshop disaster’ on all the pictures of the telly with pictures of what the camera mounted on the top of the telly is supposed ot be showing.
The camera’s not even pointed at the lovely ladies, and that surely is where all web-cams should be pointed (at lovely ladies).

They have a contact called Sungsuk

She’s pointing with her other hand on the TV screen.

Isn’t that how reflections work?

Except it’s not a reflection, yes!
Isn’t it supposed to be what the camera would see, which should be the end of her finger?
Wouldn’t, would would, would. Especially if they can all play dead like Michael.

Sorry, forgot my /sarcasm flag
The fact that (in the 2nd pic) you can see their actual reflection on the screen as well as the display and see that it’s quite different; as well as the fact that the display seems to be showing not just themselves in the picture, but the screen itself too, is a bit of a giveaway really.
Still, at least they tried by flipping the picture round to looks vaguely right.
I’m sure there’s probably a demotivational picture about how trying really really hard doesn’t really make up for complete and utter incompetance…
