Sonyericsson p800-p990, htc wm phones, they all had touchscreens, but iphone should get the credit for making the first hit touchscreen phone liked by many which did change the game.. Before that people would reserve touchscreen for "business users" or geeks as they were hard to use , needed stylus,etc.



You say that, but the 1st gen iPhone was used really mainly by business users mostly. It didn't really become a popular main stream handset until about the 3gs, by which time there was already other similar phones on the market and smartscreened phones were becoming popular and the norm...

Every bl**dy phone is now a rectangle block i imagine a world before the iphone when we didn't know what to expect and now well we know what shape its going to be if nothing else.

Hmm but today is all about the dawn age of the PC
people now want the ability to use there phones as
smaller mini versions of there computers

I agree though the iPhone is big enough for that required use
but 4+ may top it and 5+ just seems crazy to me

next we'll be carrying ipads to our ears instead of these devices

btw I see-a-Cutee upthere ^^ my Nokia 8210

Now at this present time we don’t see flip phones, mini phones, or anything else in general. All of the new phones we see nowadays are smartphones.
I don't disagree that Apple has had an immense impact on the mobile industry ... but this picture is a little sensationalist. You're basically showing a bunch of dumb phones (on the left) against a bunch of smart phones (on the right). Smartphone market share has definitely grown a lot, but you're assuming that smartphones currently dominate the marketplace, which they do not.
