<p>Long before the <a href="http://osxdaily.com/category/iphone/">iPhone</a>, there was… an Apple phone? I don’t know if this is real, if it was actually patented by Apple Inc, or if it was ever produced, but it certainly looks like someones brilliant high-tech idea from 1985. Who wouldn’t want to be talking into a flip apple phone? </p>
