It’s hard to believe, but it’s been 14 years since Apple shipped the first iPhones. On this day in 2007, Apple Stores across the United States hosted the “iPhone World Premiere,” and life was never the same. Looking back on that day, it’s clear that it marked a turning point. It was the beginning of a revolution in basically every single industry.

This is a fantastic article, sure to prompt huge waves of nostalgia in folks old enough to remember the huge power of that original launch.

Don’t miss Gary Allen’s incredible Flickr album, especially the pics of Steve Jobs at the bottom of the page.

But scroll, scroll, scroll. There’s so much richness here, including some fantastic videos from back in the day. Great job pulling this together by Parker Ortolani.
