I'm not sure that proves anything; the CrunchPad appears to be derivative of the iPhone which had been out for a year at that point. I consider scaling up the iPhone design to a larger size to be obvious. For clarity:

2004: Apple files patent on iPad-like design

2007: iPhone released

2008: CrunchPad development started
