Microsoft is attempting to sell Nokia Windows Phones by blasting Apple iPhone users and Fragmandroid settlers in a new television ad slated for U.S. and Canadian network and cable broadcasts.

In the ad, a wedding is taking place when a fight breaks out between well-heeled Apple iPhone users on one side and poorly-dressed Fragmandroid settlers on the other.

“Aren’t you a little young to have an iPhone,” asks an unkempt Fragmandroid settler who’s at least as old as the woman to whom he poses his supposedly cutting question. He looks to be waiting for yet another stab at an antivirus app to download to his ugly, plastic iPhone wannabe, but we couldn’t be sure as we were far too distracted by the size of the knot in his circa 1973 necktie. You just know the guy is recording episodes of Hee Haw on his VHS machine back home as all of this goes down.

MacDailyNews Take: Mildly humorous in spots, yet largely ineffective.

Translation for any stray Fragmandroid settlers who might mosey on by: Ain’t gonna work, Micronokia. Y’all’s time done passed.
