Introduced to the market in late 2007, Apple iPhone is the newest and most promising mobile platform, which “combines three devices in one: a revolutionary mobile phone, a widescreen iPod, and a breakthrough Internet device”. Its unique features - high computing power, multi-touch interface and high resolution display, coupled with phenomenal sales of over six million devices worldwide in the first year clearly show that the market for iPhone applications is ripe.

- Capacitive multi-touch screen
- Accelerometer
- State-of-the-art UI ergonomics
