  I remember when the iPhone came out, it was a little more than an iPod that made calls. The rest is history.

    I think you might be misremembering; the original iPhone had YouTube, maps (though it lacked a GPS for whatever reason), a camera, Safari, and even a primitive HTML based App Store that paved the way for modern PWAs. Games like Bejeweled were available months before iOS 2.0 came with the App Store.

    The Moto ROKR was an iPod that made calls.

      Tbh there also was an iPod Touch, which did everything iPhone did except making calls.

      You’re right. It was released almost at the same time as the 1st gen iPod touch, and that iPod ran the same OS as the iPhone (then named iPhone OS). I thought the iPod touch came before, it didn’t. The iPod classic was significantly different from the iPhone.
