    I wouldnt say a mobile because the first bit of equipment is Acer but his phone is Samsung,he then uses a Sony Ericsson. no company would feature another electronics company in their ad

    Oh its Half Life then, if the Babel Research site is to be believed.

    However, the disclaimer on this page might suggest otherwise. Its a bit contradictory. Though the sounds and music they refer to might not be the music composed by Valve and the sounds aboard the bus (ie. Radio/TV)

    edit: check this out too. http://www.whatsinthebox.nl/ Top button takes you to the video, the left takes you to some other stuff, etc.

    The bottom button takes you to a text prompt. You have to guess the phrase I guess, or "The magic word". I tried Pandora... and it responded with "Copay Pales" which is an anagram of Apocalypse.
