Steve Jobs described it as 'an iPod, a phone and an internet communicator'

Since its unveiled, Apple has sold more than a billion iPhones around the world

Last year saw sales of the iPhone drop for the first time in the device´s history 

Last week, a never-before-seen alternate version of the iPhone design was discovered that looked similar to an iPod design 

The iPhone, the device that redefined the mobile phone and has helped make Apple the most valuable company in the world, is 10 years old today.





It was on January 9 2007 that late Apple founder, Steve Jobs, went on stage at the company´s Macworld event to announce it was about to reveal 'an iPod, a phone and an internet communicator'.

But rather than three separate products being revealed, one of the first truly smart phones was unveiled.
