Watch Steve Jobs introduce the original iPhone 10 years ago today

"Every once in a while a revolutionary product comes along that changes everything."

With those words Apple CEO Steve Jobs began his keynote address at Macworld San Francisco on January 9, 2007. In typical Jobs fashion, he went on to say that Apple was introducing "three revolutionary products" that day. The first was a widescreen iPod with touch controls, the second was a "revolutionary mobile phone" and the third was "a breakthrough internet communications device."

They were, of course, three products rolled into one: the iPhone. And the rest, as they say, is history.

"Thank you for coming," he said, wearing his trademark Levi's and black mock turtleneck. "We're going to make some history together today."

 

​After Uber brouhaha, CA looks to tighten self-driving car law

Uber flouted California law and rolled out its self-driving cars to passengers in San Francisco last month, without a permit from the state. Now, some local legislators are taking measures, in the name of safety, to ensure no company does that again.

Assembly member Phil Tang introduced a state bill on Thursday that would give the California Department of Motor Vehicles more ways to go after companies that illegally operate autonomous vehicles.
