For better or worse the iPhone hit the market today 16 years ago changing the world forever.

    Anybody remember the really awful phones that existed right before this? I had a “Verizon” brand phone that had the worst precursor to modern GPS on it. Made being a delivery driver very challenging as it would die and the maps were not accurate.

    Would not recommend

      I still look back fondly on my Samsung BlackJack; that phone was fantastic. I still have my HTC Tilt 2 (that was the ATT branded name for it; I can’t remember what HTC called it) and it still works.

      There were lots of good/cool phones before the iPhone.
