Setting the Trend the Last 10!

Apple released its first iPod 10 years ago in 2001. To think about the transformation that this MP3 player has gone through is remarkable. Apple not only turned this device in to a mobile phone, it has numerous varieties of the iPod itself.

The iPod at its beggining in 01' was big and ugly in comparision to the iPod and iPhone's of today. Apple changed the way people think about their cell phones and MP3 players. This is because they were combined back in January, 2007. Its funny to think that when the original iPod came out and I bought it, I was excited it had Solitare and Brick Breaker in the GAMES settings. Look now at the iPhone, which has thousands of applications and games.

Apple in the past 10 years have dominated the technology world. I can only imagine what it will do in the future.

  1. Do you believe that Apple will continue to dominate the technology world in the next years, and lots of technology brands now in the market will disappear in the future, for example, Song's laptop?

  2. Mandy, thank you for the comment. Interesting points you bring up and I do agree that there will be some items that will disappear in the near future (iPod). However, I think that all new technologies that arise will be led by Apple.

  3. Can you think of reasons why Apple has been so successful? Is it because of technology alone?

  4. Sven,

    I think that there are many reasons for their success. I feel their ability to be the first out on most new technology is the most important aspect. Also, there brand name is so great that now everyone just continues to buy Apple.
