9. The iPhone (2007)
9. iPhone (2007)
Apple electrified the tech world with this device -- the first truly smart smartphone. It is an iPod, an Internet device and a phone combined in one small gadget. Its revolutionary multi-touch user interface is gradually replacing the PC's graphical user interface on many devices.
蘋果憑藉iPhone震驚了科技界。這是第一款真正智能的智能手機，集iPod、互聯網設備、手機功能于一身。iPhone帶來了革命性的多點觸控用戶界面，在許多設備中，個人電腦(PC)圖形用戶界面正逐步被取而代之。
A year after it was introduced, it was joined by the App Store, which allowed third-party developers to sell programs, or apps, for the phone. They now number about a million. It has spawned many competitors that have collectively moved the Internet from a PC-centric system to a mobile-centric one.
iPhone問世一年后，蘋果推出了應用商店(App Store)，允許第三方開發商在店內出售iPhone應用。現在，iPhone的應用數量已經達到約100萬個。iPhone也催生了許多競爭對手，它們共同把互聯網從一個以PC為中心的系統轉變為一個以移動設備為中心的系統。
