Unopened first-generation iPhone set to fetch more than £40,000 at auction

An unopened first-generation iPhone from 2007 has gone under auction and is expected to fetch more than $50,000 (£40,000).

Karen Green was given the phone as a gift by friends after getting a new job but she never broke the seal and opened it up as she already had a mobile and would have had to pay a fee to change networks, it is reported.

The phone was on sale in 2007 for $599 and the first iPhone offered a 3.5-inch screen with a 2 megapixel camera and 8GB of storage.
