    I had an iPhone day 1 in 2007 and it was pretty crazy. I was at a store looking around and being ignored by all the sales people. I pulled my iPhone out and checked my email real quick, and multiple sales people came over to check on me. At the bar some girl asked to try it and said it was better than a puppy for getting a girls attention. The cell phone kiosk in the mall would always hassle people to try and sell cases; when they asked what phone I had, I told them an iPhone and instead of trying to sell me a case, they just freaked out and wanted to see it.

    I didn’t even flex it or show it off. It all just kind of happened, even being pretty low key.
