Exactly 10 years ago today, on June 29, 2007, the original iPhone went on sale, six months after Steve Jobs stood onstage at Macworld Expo 2007 in San Francisco and told the world Apple was reinventing the phone, revolutionizing an entire industry like it had done with the Macintosh in 1984 and the iPod in 2001.

The iPhone, with its 3.5-inch display, lack of a physical keyboard, Apple-designed touch-based user interface, and multi-touch support, was unique among phones of that era, and as Jobs promised, it changed everything. The product that some speculated would fail miserably shaped the smartphone industry and made Apple one of the most valuable companies in the world.

Someone posted these pics on the OT thread:












The only noticeable difference between all those pics is the wallpaper.

And as far as I can tell, they still haven't figured out how to add a legitimate back button.

And my tech addicted buddy got one on this day that he had been waiting months to get, during his lunch break, brought it back to the office and was showing us and dropped it on the concrete floor, completely shattering the screen. He had it about 30 minutes.
