The iPhone That Started A Revolution
June 29, 2012
Steve Jobs, January 2007, MacWorld,
An iPod, a phone, and an Internet communicator...are you getting it? These are not three separate devices. This is one device. And we are calling it iPhone. Today Apple is going to reinvent the phone.Although Steve Jobs first announced it in January 2007 at MacWorld, today is the actual anniversary of the first iPhone. In fact, it is a biggie. Five years ago today, Apple’s first handset went on sale and along with it, forever changed the cell phone industry. Since then, four iPhones models have followed, with the next one expected to arrive later this year. Still, if it weren’t for that first iPhone, we would have never seen the App Store, Siri, iTunes Match, and other Apple products that are so popular today.
