C'mon, you're not one of these young kids that doesn't know smartphones existed before the iPhone. One always learns from the competition, even if it's what not to do.
They were “smartphones” in the same way the Altair was a “personal computer” before the Apple ][.
Apple must have hundreds, if not thousands, of products not seen before in their labs.
When has Apple not created something reimagined? Without access to their labs, I couldn't tell you. Drop Sir J. I. a line, and he might tell you.
I win! :)
Something unseen can neither be proven nor disproven, so it doesn't count.
I don't think Solomon had a smartphone, but he would've had one hell of a contact list.
Steve Jobs is on record as saying that he's proudest of the things Apple hasn't shipped, which I would call proof.
What was the earliest long distance communication? God speaking to Adam, I guess. After that, men shouting, then fire. Though whether Adam and Eve raised their voices from afar when arguing over the apple, I don't know. ????
A man now deceased claimed, while offering no examples, that he was proudest (i.e. he was being hyperbolic already) of things he'd said no to, and BF considers that proof that Apple created products in their labs that were unlike anything on earth, and didn't release them?

Wow.
I didn't say that; your reading comprehension leaves a lot to be desired.

You sir are elevating trolling to a new level.
Someone has to try and bring you up from the dirt.

The Altair that defined standards, ignited a wave of creativity, and inspired a lot of followers, including the Apple][?
You do pick some odd examples to prove your points.
Not a word of that seems remotely true, but hey, it’s you.
I guess “creativity” could include making lights flash in a pretty pattern or something.
Maybe you should do some reading before you dismiss other people's achievements that dwarf your own
Here's somewhere to start: http://pc-history.org/altair.htm
Apple don't design in a vacuum, they stand on the shoulders of giants, as we all do.
Thanks for making this about me when we were clearly discussing the comparative importance of the Altair and the Apple ][. Anything else to add?
Question is, would Apple have created the iPhone if there weren't smartphones already in existence?

We'll never know, so the question is moot.
Of course. Because the lack of quality products remains.

I seem to recall Marvin saying that the first iPhone wasn't a smartphone. I disagreed.
When has Apple created something new, not seen before, and not something reimagined?

Is that a trick question?
The trick is coming up with a answer.

Ok, I’ll bite.
There is nothing new under the sun.

But we don't know what those are. Could be a bunch of versions of the iPhone before deciding on the design that did ship, or he could've been lying.
