iPhone Spotted in ITV’s The Bill – [Briefly]

I’m not even entirely sure if this is newsworthy or not, but recently I’ve seen the iPhone and iPod touch featured a lot of adverts, and it was quite interesting tonight to see a fairly major ITV (www.itv.com) drama blatantly advertise the iPhone. Hit the jump for shots.
Watching The Bill on ITV about 20 minutes ago, and it only flashed up for a second, but as you can see from the screen shots, it was unmistakably the iPhone Classic:


The iPod touch in a UK car advert, iPhone in The Bill, Where will they appear next?
What’s even more interesting is the guy seems to be controlling a surveillance system with it, wirelessly. A few weeks ago, the application iRa [App Store] was spotlighted as being ‘The most expensive iPhone app on the store to date’.
Screenshot:

The application retails for £499.99 sterling ($899 USD), and allows the user to:
- Easily view many video feeds simultaneously
- View full screen video
- PTZ (pan, tilt, zoom) control for camera motion
- Use familiar finger drag and pinch controls
- Group cameras for quick access
- Automatic discovery of properly configured network cameras
Could this have been what we just saw in action? An up-coming unreleased application maybe? Or complete fiction?
The most expensive application before iRa was ‘I am Rich‘ by Armin Heinrich which retailed for $999.99 and after 8 sales, was pulled from the store.
One question, Where are the iPhone 3G’s?!
