AT&T Adds Sharp FX to Its Lineup is a post by Carter Sprunger from Notebooks.com.

Super Bowl 44 has wrapped up and with New Orleans already on it’s way to Mardi Gras complete with a Vince Lombardi trophy in hand we wanted to take a quick look at the technology commercials that have taken over the Super Bowl in recent years. Personally, I felt that the commercials in the first half looked a bit like last year’s notebooks but like the Saint’s performance I was pleasantly surprised be the second half worth of Super Bowl commercials.
