No, for its fourth or fifth or thereabouts? It happened years after Metro, as did Google Material Design (a fantastic improvement to the platform).

So others copied Apple's first Iphone UI.

Now do you get it or are you still going to argue about this?

You mean app drawer with icons, which Nokia 7650 had in 2003?

Or touch only operated interface from Motorola a1000 from 2004?

And those are not by any means first phones in each category.

[sumedh]

and where are those companies today?

[wor3q]

And why does it matter? Apple just ripped off their design, period.

[sumedh]

It matters because it took Apple to show the world how to do it properly.

[wor3q]

No they didn't. What they did is show the world how to create a marketing campaign.

They took it to the point when people thought that Apple invented 3g when iPhone 3g went out, when it was on market for almost 10 years, and it was an update to what everyone else had already.

iPhone was way behind Symbian and Windows mobile at date of launch.

It didn't even have multitasking...

Also, use some arguments instead of switching topic every reply.

I give up.
