Where does the time go. It just seems like yesterday that I first went into an Apple store and tried out the first iPhone.
Tomorrow the Apple iPhone celebrates its 5th anniversary.
My first experience with the iPhone as I said was at an Apple store. Five years ago we didn't have Apple stores in Australia. I was on holiday in Hawaii celebrating a milestone birthday. My wife left me in the Apple store and I waited for a chance to try out the new iPhone.
My first experience wasn't good. The iPhone locked up shortly after I started using it. That for me was a good outcome. I waited until the iPhone 3GS arrived two years later and used the iPhone as a portable computer. The iPhone has limitations for me, but overall it has been a very good device largely delivering on expectations.
As an example I'm using an App to write this blog entry but really I'd just prefer to use the browser and blog directly on the web site. The browser isn't good enough, but then again I don't think any of the mobile browsers are quite there yet. We really have to work within the limitations of the device.
The original iPhone if I recall correctly wasn't quite suited to the Australian network, but it has certainly come a long way.
Do you remember when you first got to check out an iPhone?
