Telus, one of Canada's largest cell-phone providers, has been using brightly coloured lizards and amphibians in it's advertising campaigns for at least a year or two. Their TV ads typically show one of the little beasties crawling around, over and atop of cell phones, while a voice over shills the product. They're quite clever and well done, actually. The little beggars actually seem to have some personality! I'm guessing that the "Write Now - Right Now" has to do with a texting option. I can't read the print underneath, either, even on the sister shot to this one which is much sharper (but focused on the far wall, at f2.0). Glad you got a kick out of it. Thanks for commenting. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
