Much has been said about the death of Apple's former CEO Steve Jobs yesterday. Even President Obama chimed in with a pretty cool - and probably accurate - insight: "There may be no greater tribute to Steve’s success than the fact that much of the world learned of his passing on a device he invented."
As much as Jobs was known for his innovative gadgets, he was equally known for his marketing prowess. You can see both in this video clip below (HERE if you don't see it) of his keynote introducing the iPhone. Watch the first ten minutes of this, if nothing else. It's fascinating to remember all that went into this first generation product.
What's even more fascinating is realizing that this took place just four years ago.
R.I.P., Steve Jobs. Thanks for everything.
Given how compulsively I check my iPhone throughout the day, it is indeed truly amazing this was only four years ago.
