I remember 10, 9, 8, 7 years ago here where people in these parts would rip on the iPhone, say it was inferior to Android devices, etc. :roll::talk::whaa::cnf::x
The iPhone just turned 10 yesterday. It is the most successful and most influential product ever released. It is one of the few products that has generated over 1,000,000,000,000 in revenue, and 400-500B in profit.
It is very rare to see something fundamentally change the world. I am very glad it was a company that I hold near and dear that did it.

It may be a very long time before we see another product change the world like this. If I had to guess, I would bet on Augmented Reality being the next frontier with a product that comes close.
