In 70% of the movies I've watched, the actors use Apple products...I just wonder why they always use them...I was expecting Rim Blackberry, for example :) What are your serveys :D

Yeah the iPhone is in many movies nowadays :). I remember that in the movie "Cellular" the actor used a Nokia 6600.

In Ocean's Twelve (or maybe it was Ocean's Eleven), Brad Pitt has a Siemens S65.

Yeah, I've also spotted iPhones, iPads and MacBook Pro's quite a lot in the movies and I wonder if that's actually paid advertising (by Apple) or just what producers find best suitable according to the movie story. Because on the other hand, there are plenty of films in which I can recognize that the laptop is, for instance MacBook Pro, but its illuminated apple logo is hidden behind a sticker.

I think that all that stuff is a marketing trick

In most of the cases they show the brand of the phone because they`re sponsored by the manufacturer :)

Mostly, people tend to think that it's an advertising campaign. I guess it could be, that's for sure. However, short after the first iPad launched, popular TV show made an episode mainly revolving around the new apple gadget. It turns out they never even got a free device from apple, so I wouldn't be 100% on either side.
