Ever since the iPhone made its debut, we’ve heard a lot of complaints from users. Despite all that, it’s still a hot item to have on the gadgets list, and now magazine icon Time is making the iPhone an icon, naming it the “Invention of the Year.”

The magazine lists five reasons why iPhone grabs the honor, from “the iPhone is pretty,” to “it will make other phones better.” It says further that, “it’s part of a new way of relating to computers,” and that “touching is the new seeing.”

Whatever the case, the iPhone has been one of the most talked about and desired gadgets this year. Hackers have helped to keep it in the headlines by finding ways around the AT&T service lock. How or if the iPhone evolves, remains to be seen.
