It was already established in the mobile space before the iPhone launched. For example Palm transitioned in 2002 from their original 68k architecture and wrote their own 68k emulator for ARM.

Yeah. Was also in the archimedes computers back the 80s and 90s but those along with palm were pretty niche.

The iPhone was the first properly mainstream product that sold in real volume imho.

But yes. Arm goes back a long way. Almost as far as i386.
