Remembering the doubters who mocked the original iPhone in 2007
Original: The original iPhone had its share of haters in 2007
A retrospective look back at 2007 shows the original iPhone, unveiled by Steve Jobs, faced significant skepticism from critics and industry figures at launch. Many doubted its lack of a physical keyboard, its high price, and its chances against established rivals like Nokia, BlackBerry and Palm.
