iPhone

The iPhone is a line of Internet and multimedia-enabled smartphones designed and marketed by Apple Inc. The first iPhone was unveiled on January 9, 2007 and caused a frenzy of excitement on the Internet with gadget and tech blogs like MethodShop.com. Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple, announced the iPhone to the world at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, California.

An iPhone can function as a video camera, a camera phone with text messaging and visual voicemail, a portable media player, and an Internet client with e-mail and web browsing capabilities, and both Wi-Fi and 3G connectivity. The user interface is built around the device’s multi-touch screen, including a virtual keyboard rather than a physical one. Third-party as well as Apple applications are available from the App Store, which launched in mid-2008 and hundreds of thousands of “apps” approved by Apple. These apps have diverse functionalities, including games, reference, GPS navigation, social networking, security and advertising for television shows, films, and celebrities.
