16 years ago today, on January 9th 2007, Steve Jobs unveiled Apple's very first iPhone at the Macworld 2007 convention at the Moscone Center in San Francisco. The iPhone incorporated a 3.5-inch multi-touch display with few hardware buttons, and ran the iPhone OS operating system with a touch-friendly interface, then marketed as a version of Mac OS X. It launched on June 29, 2007, at a starting price of US$499 in the United States, and required a two-year contract with Cingular (now AT&T). The iPhone would remain exclusive to Cingular/AT&T for 4 years until 2011. It would change the mobile phone game forever, and ended the careers of the Sidekick, Blackberry, Nokia, Motorola RAZR, among several others.
