When I look back at June 29, 2007, one event comes to mind. The iPhone was released. This groundbreaking product, developed by Apple, has proven to be very successful. iPhone has created a whole new market for mobile devices, making cell phones that can also perform computer functions available to a much broader range of consumers. It is now commonplace to see anyone carrying “smart phones”. This has created a new kind of culture for mobile phones and has caused other businesses like LG, Google, and Microsoft to get on board with this new technology.
The iPhone has a vast array of features that most people would find very useful every day. With my iPhone I have the ability keep current on just about everything. I have the ability to check my email or stay in contact using AOL instant messenger or Facebook. Websites that I access are able to be viewed in a non-abridged format, rather than a somewhat cramped mobile format. An added bonus with the iPhone would be that I can look at my voicemails with visual voicemail. This feature increases productivity and saves me a lot of time by letting me click on a particular voicemail I want to listen to instead of logging into voicemail and going through a long series of prompts to listen to one message. The IPhone brand has continued to grow and has reached bigger markets. Exclusively available to AT&T subscribers for the past three years, Verizon has also recently forged an agreement with Apple, allowing their customers to utilize iPhones as well. With this move Apple has even made their iPhone an even bigger competitor in the fast-changing mobile market.
