The original iPhone will always hold a special place in my heart <3
It was so far ahead of anything else at the time and being in Australia I was one of very, very few that had it.
People initially laughed at me when I paid $850 for it(contract free obviously) but I was right and it turned out to be by far the best phone in the world for at least the next 2-3 years, now it has good competition but still I love my iPhones.
Even though I'm using a HTC Mozart, WP7 phone because i sold my iP4, I can't wait till I get my pre-ordered iPhone 4S 😀
