I hate that commercial, I wish I didn't use tv as background noise while I work at night. Ugh, time to just listen to music instead, LOL... Anyone else HATE that commercial?

However, logic says it IS pronouned as GIF. The G stands fro GRAPHICS. It's a known controversy and there's not a right answer, because there are good arguments for both. I'm a linguist and I've never had any doubts it's a G as in gift. But I do get where you come from, as I said, there are arguments for the other option, too. But no 100% right answer, it'd say both are correct.
