With Apple set to unveil its newest iPhones, a key question for the California tech giant is whether it can recapture the magic from its first release a decade ago. Jobs introduced the first iPhone on January 9, 2007 and set the stage for mobile computing -- and an entire industry revolving around it. The timing, however, is in sync with Apple's annual unveiling of new iPhone models and comes as rivals field fresh champions powered by Google-backed Android software. Some reports say Apple will introduce three new iPhone models, with unconfirmed talk that a special premium iPhone will be priced as high as $1,400. Loup Ventures partner Gene Munster said in a research note that the new premier iPhone "will be the biggest step forward in iPhone technology that we've seen since the original device launched 10 years ago."
