The Apple Watch is scheduled to go for pre-order later this week, with release slated a fortnight later on April 24th. The way Apple has gone about advertising and preparing for the device's roll out - with a two-week try-on period running at retail stores throughout the pre-order phase - it's clear that the company believes this product could be as big if not bigger than the iPhone was in 2007, and while some commentators have echoed these sentiments, there's plenty of contrasting skepticism. An interesting archive takes us back to the period of the iPhone's launch, and throws up some intriguing, oft hilarious initial reaction to the smartphone that changed everything.
