Microsoft introduced its Windows 7 smartphone today with an ad campaign from Crispin Porter + Bogusky that pokes fun at the obsessive use of (presumably rival) cellphones.

The campaign features the tagline “Be here now,” and kicks off with a 60-second commercial that shows people around the world unable to disconnect from their mobile devices in all sorts of situations, from sitting on the beach to taking a shower.
