I’ve kept thinking about this, so I decided to run it in reverse. An iPhone 16 would be would be about $340 in 1991 money. That’s only 70% more than the cell phone in the catalog, or only _42%_ of the camcorder! The camcorder alone would be almost $1900 today. You could get a folding phone for that. Or three iPhones 16Es.
