A television advert for the iPhone misled consumers, the Advertising Standards Authority has ruled.
Two complaints to the watchdog noted that the advert said "all the parts of the internet are on the iPhone".
But the ASA said because the iPhone did not support Flash or Java - two programs that form part of many webpages - the claim was misleading.
