Vintage 1980s Ericsson Commercial

[metabog]

The music rules.

[mitriada]

I love Sweden!!!

[birckrenan]

The music is a nice ear worm.

[downhill240]

That's a mind-blower at 57 seconds. They should have put wheels on the thing! LOL

[vilvero]

Internet?

[LFletch2]

Late 80's I think because the cabinets have the blue doors that open full length rather than a series of gray covers over every shelf. The blue door cabinets were made to satisfy a BT requirement when AXE was selected as "System Y" in the UK.

[pablowaldrones79]

What did one of these cost?

[SouthwesternEagle]

@pablowaldrones79 I'm not sure if they were actually advertising a product here. I think it was an ad about their new digital networking technology "AXE".

[SouthwesternEagle]

This video has the best music I have ever heard! 8D

If only there were a single made of this.

[jmsofia]

everybody typed with two fingers back then, and that shiny glass thing is really useful for propping up a big chart during a presentation (@2:15) !!!

[njetblaj]

Hmm, it seems like the same style of winter shoes wich are popular now, were popular then as well. :)

[wj0102]

Shiny nails....

[gjc82071]

Is it just me or does the narrator sound a little like Dan Akroyd?

[damaia101]

lol great video

and they weren´t fooling around with the slogan "Today for Tomorrow

the AXE system they announce,here is the same (with due evolution) of the core of telecomunication in most countries.

go E///

but the follow me service is by far the most far-reached project lolololololol

[ZXRulezzz]

Music is awesome! :D

[Ahrsib]

Remenbering 1980s - Thanks for having it!

[AchmeddeadTerroris]

AXE still rules the world , no competitor is able to beat Ericsson's exchanges

[ollebanan]

LOL gotta love the miami vice music style.

[christl301]

OMG thats amazinng, where can I purchase one of these.

[mochabhan]

That's Ericsson technology, AXE platform, for switching in telecommunication industri, until this time :)

[leinsterman]

How is that fellow going to pick up his call with a mouth full of dental equipment?

[mitriada]

@leinsterman I think that the phone call was destined for the dentist and not for the patient!?! Ok, it's funny the way that is presented in adv...

[IcsimaruGin]

I'm glad to use an Ericsson T65 as secondary phone :).

[Keijz74]

My basic text and talk Sony Ericsson J120i is pretty good. The speech quality is fine and it's user friendly too.

[TheCheshireCat86]

Nice cellphone at 0:55 .

[bigtintheheat]

I love computers...

[madturki]

Wow! I love that the musician got credited at the end of the commercial :P

[Keijz74]

I wonder what he does nowadays. Nice music Mr. WIberg :o)#

[xlingk]

oh man love the awesome 80s tune.

so Ericsson was all about VoIP in the 80s, nice.

[friendlycumshot]

The song makes me dance, I dance all the night.

[mrtheroosterdude]

Don't see many cell phones like that anymore

[ScorpionX1985]

The commentator sounds an awful lot like Rick Mercer

[jmm1233]

i want one :)

[frankyoriginal]

Klockrent!

[1888junkteam]

0:50 luv that cell phone

[bwbasicwoman]

TODAY FOR TOMORROW!

[troublesomeog]

lol

[dhemoraes]

wow...that was amazing..

Now a days I work with AXE develoment in Brazil, and it seems a normal thing today. But if you go back in the future, just like this movie made, you would undertand how foward their were. Impresive, how things hadn´t changed for the wireline AXE system. Its older than me...

[jourtor]

I love the dentist part at 0:26

[superextremelaser]

What an awesome glimpse into the past! I can hardly believe the weirdness. Also, lmfao at paying money to get interrupted in the middle of a dentist visit! He's probably all novocainy and mumbling into the phone!!!

[Keijz74]

"sobby ab bembits..... pewwo!?!"
