iPod mini first gen blue at launch (2003?)

I bought a regular iPod in 2005.

iPhone in 2007 on launch day and every model of iPhone each year since.

We have an original Nano streaming music in our room at night right now. Been doing that for nearly 10 years. Still runs great.
 
A second gen (2005) iPod mini. Is floating around somewhere between here and my desk at work, but am pretty sure the HD is shot.
 
My first iDevice was the original 2007 iPhone (not before I panned it for being a bad idea though. The story is here.) Since then I've had every generation, except the 5c and 6 (currently have a 6 Plus).

First iPad was an iPad 2. Then went iPad 3, Air, and Air 2.

After I upgrade, all previous generations get handed down to my Significant Other.
 
My first "iDevice" would have been a second generation iPod touch that I ordered from Apple refurbished. Sparked my love for most things apple, and since I've owned ever iPhone since the 3G and countless other Apple products.
 
My first iDevice was an iPod Classic 5th Generation (white, 30GB), it looked so cool back in 2006 because it was the first iPod with video. Then I got an iPhone 3G (black, 16GB) in 2008 for my 18th birthday. And then an iPad 2 (white, 64GB) for Christmas 2011. Last month I finally upgraded my old but still working iPhone 3G to an iPhone 6 Plus (silver, 64GB). They're all still working alright although a bit scratched and battered, I'm still very attached to my iPad because I use it for everything as my main home computer, but my iPhone 6 Plus is quickly becoming my new favourite iDevice :p
 
My first iDevice was one of the iPods with the front dial in green (can't remember model name) and I bought my first white Macbook around 2002. The first game-changing portable device for me, though, was the original iPad that my husband bought me sight unseen for my birthday. At the time I was using a Blackberry phone (Storm II - ugh!) and after a month with the iPad, I just knew I had to have an iPhone and bought the iPhone 4 at release day. I've had every generation iPhone since.:) It's amazing to think how much impact smartphones have had on our daily habits and lives in a few short years. Just things like various apps, Google search engine, camera capabilities, and navigation on the go. Mind-boggling to think how much things have changed.
 
My first was a 40GB iPod Photo (4th gen). I had that for several years but gave it to the son of a friend about two years ago. Next was my first iPhone, which was the 3GS. I've since owned the 4, 4S, 5, 5S and 6, plus the first two iPad minis. (Still using the mini 2).
 
First iDevice was an iPhone 3G. Bought many years back. I've caught the iPhone bug and have been upgrading to the new gen each year.
 
First Apple product was a iPod second gen 8gb and I fell in love. Since then, because of me, literally everybody in my family has an iPhone, convinced both parents to get iPads (and they love it), got a a
AirPort Time Capsul and Airport Express, Apple TV second gen, bought myself an iMac 21.5 2012, and a MBA 13 2013 and recently got an iPhone 6 and an iPad air 2 (both 64) and planning on getting the Apple Watch Sport edition

I may be going a little I've r the top but Apple product make me so happy for some reason lol
 
Launch day 3G. First and only product I've ever waited in a line overnight for. Good times, though. It was a blast.:D
 
First iDevice was a 2GB iPod Nano back in 2005 (10 years ago already :eek:). My first Mac I got a year before that, a PowerMac G4 inherited from my grandfather.

Had a few iPod nano's since then before I went the touch and eventually the iPhone route.
 
My first was an iPhone 3G. I was coming from a Samsung Blackjack pocket PC, and wanted an iPod Touch, but figured why have two devices when one would be even better.
 
1st gen, not long after the Fall 2007 price drop to $399.

hactivated out of the box, then went official and activated legitimately.

Still, had installer going and everything :) and that

I can't remember the name of the multitasker app either but you put your finger in the bottom left corner and you could scroll dial between app icons it was so sweet over top of the home screen.

Had and jailbroken every iPhone except 5s, I skipped on that and stayed with my 5 before 6 then 6+
 
iPhone 3g. 8gb Since then:
iPhone 4 32 gb
iPhone 5 64 gb
iPad w/retina display 16gb
MacBook pro w/retina display 15.5
Apple TV
iPad Air 2 64gb
iPhone 6+ 128 gb

A friend of mine did get me an iPod for my birthday like 10 years ago that I never opened. I got to find that some day.
