I think the only thing the iphone did to change the game was the app store as getting a game for a phone before that was a ball ache.

Pointless thread.

Also, you should be thanking Jony Ive not Steve Jobs.

JackClark

Why pointless, it's the anniversary today and it affected all of us.

I might dig up a thread. Me saying you're looking at the future and some tit saying the mighty Blackberry will never be toppled, LOL.

JackClark

Have a think about who could have said no and stopped the project.

ScoobyNoob79

Didn't affect me one bit.

I love Apple products, I pretty much have one of everything, but because they do what I want, not because I'm a fanboy or Steve Jobs lover.

It's a known fact Steve Jobs stole most of the ideas from the start, even passing off Jony Ive's idea's as his own.

As I said, if you want to thank someone for the iPhone thank Jony.

ScoobyNoob79

I don't care if Steve being CEO could have stopped it or not, Jony's idea, Jony's vision, Jony's design, end of.

JackClark

Didn't affect you one bit, what phone do you use?

dpb

You have to thank LG, for making it all possible



And to conclude bigjobs the biggest plagarist since William Shakespeare

ScoobyNoob79

Doesn't matter if I use an iPhone or not, I wouldn't be thanking Steve Jobs for anything.

This is just a fanboy thread.

Cant believe its been 7 years.......




that I have been hearing people spouting this apple fanboy bollox.

Happy birthday Iphone.

When anyone mentions apple, I still think this.....

dpb

It's been successful because people were "seduced" by beige

JackClark

So you use an iPhone but haven't been affected by the iPhone at all, LOL.

Fanboi thread?? So what you're saying is, I can't start a thread about something that's good.

JackClark

See that mouse, that's another Apple first. Funnily enough a friend showed me his original Macintosh, complete with travel case, very rare indeed.

JackClark

Go on then, I'll bite you big Troll you. Why thank LG?

ScoobyNoob79

It's affected me as much as any mobile phone would, I can make calls, f**kall to do with Steve Jobs.

Start a thread about anything you like, this thread was / is an "I love Apple / Steve Jobs soooo much I wish I could have his babies fanboy thread".

I like Apple products, I own Apple products, I use Apple products everyday, that doesn't make want to *** all over my screen and start a fanboy thread.

JackClark

WOW, some mind you have there. What on earth made you think about semen?

Personally I have no problem giving praise, you should try it some time, it might take your mind off of ejaculate.

ScoobyNoob79

Praise and being a fanboy are entirely different things.

JackClark

OK, so how do I give praise to Apple without you going off on a Fanboi rant?

ScoobyNoob79

Don't start the thread in the first place, say it out loud in your house.

Or if you really have the urge, at least give the correct credit where it's due. "Thanks Jony, love the iPhone."

JackClark

I think you have issues. You're the number 1 poster on this thread, that's odd.

ScoobyNoob79

I post as a reply, simple.

Bottom line, this thread serves no purpose other than to prove your status as an Apple fanboy.

Steve didn't give us the iphone, Sir Jonathan Ive did along with the ipod. Steve gave us marketing hype to improve sales and got all the Apple Fanbois onboard.

JackClark

No, this thread was to mark an anniversary, there are thousands of threads just the same. Now if you think any thread giving credit where credit is due is a Fanboy thread, then that's your problem not mine.

It bumps my thread so I don't mind.

JackClark

You can't just make up history. As much as I love Sir Jonny, he's was just the Monkey dancing whilst Steve was grinding the organ.

From Wikipedia...

Development of what was to become the iPhone began in 2004, when Apple started to gather a team of 1000 employees to work on the highly confidential "Project Purple",[22] including Sir Jonathan Ive, the designer behind the iPhone.[23] Apple CEO Steve Jobs steered the original focus away from a tablet, like the iPad, and towards a phone.

The key point there is that Steve decided this should be a phone not a tablet. Happy?

ScoobyNoob79

Of course he did, as said Jobs was a plagarist plain and simple. Apple products are great, you can use them with jumping on the Jobs fanboy bandwagon.

"Both Jobs and Ive were named by Fortune as among the smartest people in technology. In giving Jobs top honors among all CEOs, the magazine referred to him as a "visionary, a micromanager, and a showman." Naming Ive as the top designer in technology, Fortune credited him as the person who created the iPhone and said that "from the iPod to the iPhone to the iPad, his contributions have set the course not just for Apple but for design more broadly."

JackClark

Jobs was at the helm, Jobs gets credit, simple. Why you're so Anti Steve I don't understand, let the man rest in peace.

Understand that I in no way mean to take away from Sir Jonny's brilliance as a designer, his designs are incredible, but just as marketing doesn't make a product neither does the way it looks.
