Steve Jobs was back at Apple. He was returning from his long exile and he wanted to meet with employees. Holmes went and took a bunch of photos. Read More

It seems like a no-brainer today but when Apple launched the iPhone there were no third parties app. And Apple didn’t intend to allow developers to create native apps for the iPhone neither…. That all changed on March 6, 2008.
