Why didn't anyone notice IPhone and AlP are similar?

Here is a video that was linked from palminfocenter:
http://www.mobinaute.com/70018-video-preview-systeme-exploitation-access-linux-pl.html
notice the use of icons and no keyboard. Sorry it is in French but the video demonstrates what Access will be bringing to the smart phone derby.

well, i did watch the video and did understand the French audio...
I think that HP tried to copy iPhone but as usual no one can copy the Apple design and beauty of it. Its good that runs on Linux but its an ugly device...
my opinion ofcoz...

Hmm, definite lag issues in that video.. And how exactly is this a copy of an iPhone design?????? Ipaqs looked like this for decades.

Yeah, I don't see much iPhone in this. I really don't like the iPhone to be honest. I am more excited about Access Linux Platform finally working on a device. Maybe we will finally get a Linux based Palm like they have been promising for several years now!
PS The video played fine for me and I have a 50- kpbs connection.

No I meant, the device running ALP in that video had definite lag issues :D It seemed to be straining to enter and exit rather simple (not graphics heavy) applications.
