Let the apple haters roll in...

It's called truth
Iphone was introduced 2002
Plenty of touch screen cell phones with apps before it

There are 3 iPhones in my family now and 2 Androids

Its not about hate but truth

So anybody with two Androids at home becomes the majority? Anyways, the distinction between touch screen and touch input is a huge difference, which is what the iPhone became first at.
"The first mobile phone to use a multi-touch interface, the iPhone was notable for its use of a large touchscreen for direct finger input as its main means of interaction, instead of having a stylus, keyboard, and/or keypad, which were the typical input methods for other smartphones at the time."

I was around 15 in 1992 and the way we got things done was just as easy and dare i say even more efficient than today. I truly believe tech has made a lot of people dumb. we used to remember a whole phone book of mates from memory which no 15 year old could do now as there's no need. Even tho i use android now there's no doubt in my mind apple released the first truly useable touch screen phone.

I'm pretty sure it's not the tech but the schools. The memory loss might be from the tech.
