The ooohs and ahhhs were loud and strong in San Francisco on Tuesday as Apple icon Steve Jobs rolled out his company's latest cool tool, the Apple iPhone.
After rocking the world of computing with the Mac and of music with the iPod, here was Apple's sleek new must-touch grand entry into the realm of the cell phone. And not just a cell phone, Jobs assured the faithful with his trademark black turtleneck charisma, but Apple's one-of-kind synthesis of communications, computing , music and video.
The crowd cheered.
The world may change. But meanwhile, back at the ranch, there's an Apple problem with ethics and stock options.
This hour On Point: Apple, the iPhone, and the future of Steve Jobs and his fabled company.
