Original Apple iPhone

Steve Jobs unveiled the Apple iPhone during his keynote address as the January 2007 Macworld Expo in San Francisco. It uses a multitouch touch screen, and the entire operating systems uses under half a gigabyte of the iPhone's storage.

The iPhone can be viewed in two different ways:

As an iPod with mobile phone capabilities added.
As a mobile computer with mobile phone capabilities added.

The iPhone runs OS X (although Apple is very careful not to call it Mac OS X), and the version 1.x firmware is rooted in Mac OS X 10.4 while also including new techologies developed for Mac OS X 10.5 and specifically for the iPhone. Version 2.0 firmware will be available on July 11, 2008, the same day the iPhone 3G comes to market.

The iPhone uses a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card. The back of the iPhone case is made of metal.
