MUNDANE MYSTERIES: What does the “i” in iPhone stand for?

Today Apple announced the new iPhone 14 and a bunch of other updates to their various toys.

What does the “i” in iPhone stand for anyway? Back in 1998 Steve Jobs was asked about it with the iMac and iPod were released, which then evolved into the iPhone. He explained that it stands for “Internet”.

Makes sense! Because it certainly doesn’t stand for “inexpensive”.
