This might not be car related, but we can't say the iPhone hasn't affected the world. It didn't invent a series of inventions. Instead, it combined many to create the phone that had pretty much everything.

Back then, we didn't have sexy phones. Our phones were beige mobiles and still, the higher end ones had the weird Sybian stuff, brew os, blackberry, and windows mobile (never understood that). They weren't hot at all. Then came a sexy thing. Nothing like a blackberry. But it had a shiny aluminum back and a shiny GLASS screen to top it off. You might had to take some compromises, but it was awesome.

El jobso announced and this was his baby. This revolutionized smartphones. Even the android, it took inspiration and took advice from the iPhone. Evolution occurred, we've all been impacted, no matter what. Thieves found more things to steal, people found it much more interesting to text someone than to calm them, and we stare at it in awe and usefulness. I'm writing this post from a iPhone 5, but if I had a original iPhone, it would have been more metaphorically better. Now our phones aren't a bunch of Corollas, but a dripping, sweet, glistening Jaguar E-Type.
