The iPhone is a cellphone. It didn't replace anything that wasn't there before.

I don't consider my iPhone as a cellphone, and don't use it as such. It's my pocket macbook. Which didn't really exist properly before.

If you have an iPhone it replaced your previous cellphone - the point is that it's not trying to create an entirely new market with an entirely new kind of device.

Before the iPhone, there were no paid fart apps.
