Just curious, where can I find stories about how the iPhone 1.0 was developed? I'm not sure what to search for.

A book would be a fairly heavy undertaking since it's a compilation of interviews, casual chats, etc.

For casual chats, the Debug Podcast: http://www.imore.com/debug

Why am I posting this into a talk about Japan? Oh well.

The Bio book of Steve Jobs has some chapters about it. There are also some citations about some members of the team and good part of them said it was a fantastic experience, but they had also to change job after it because they felt really exhausted (in some parts they talk about 100h per week as a standard in some teams, so I can understand them).
