Monday Fun Video: Steve Jobs Intros 2005 Motorola ROKR

My, oh, my how far we’ve come in so few years. Daring Fireball sums it up beautifully:

Hard to believe this was just four years ago. The demo starts around 2:45; the look of utter contempt comes about a minute later.

(Not iPhone friendly, sorry).

    The look on his face after a few seconds when the music doesn’t resume is priceless.

    WOW!! The end of that video was just classic! But u can definately see the pre-birth of the iPhone with this vid. They took some of the features this phone had and perfected them with the iPhone..

    This phone was awful, it and a mixture of the Cingular network couldn’t hold a call if it had to. I owned mine for a few months before I finally just scraped it and bought a cheap phone off eBay which held me over until the first iPhone came out.

    that phone was a disgrace. everytime i returned that phone, the camera (with flash!) would stop working after 2 days tops. pure ****. steve probably self mutilates everytime he sees or hears about this video. haha.

  11. Dexter Says:
