This never happened on Lindsay Wagner’s watch
A few weeks back, we mentioned an iPhone sighting on the TV series Cane, which, in turn, sparked a nice little thread in which people reported other TV shows in which the smartphone had a walk-on role. Add NBC’s Bionic Woman to that list, though possibly not in the manner that Steve Jobs and Company would have preferred.
As reported at iPhone Matters, a recent episode of the series about a woman who is also bionic featured a scene in which a character gabs on his iPhone — problematically, the iPhone is being held upside down.
If you look at the video in which this pic was taken from, he uses it correctly for the first part of the scene. Then, after a scene cut, it is upside down!
Continuity editors never had this problem with the CRT-based iMac.

Between this and Journeyman and that British reviewer, it seems pretty clear than the iPhone needs a "this side up" sticker :)

The CBS TV series Moonlight uses the iPhone almost exclusively. On the first episode the co-star takes out here iPhone and starts snapping shots of a crime scene.

I noticed that iPhones are in a lot of shows lately. Take a look at the phone that Charlie uses in Two and a Half Men.....

I believe that officer Dani Reese on the NBC show "Life" carries an iPhone also.

On tonight's episode of Two and a Half Men, Charlie answered his iPhone and had an entire conversation with the phone upside down!
