the n900 was released two years after the iphone. it was modeled on the iphone from the start, like the entire industry was. (and the n900 still didn’t support multi-touch, which Apple patented.)
the n900’s changes to the n800 were modeled on the iPhone. the n800 is completely different: for one, the touch screen is activated by pressure, not touch. Are you arguing that the n800 is better than the iPhone 1?
every new phone back then was actually new. the ideas for n900 (and all its radical changes, radical as in for the n800 not for the industry) were clearly about the iphone. i’ll agree that the n800 was not.
What was the innovation in the iPhone?
It was worse in almost every way except marketing than the n900.
The technology had reached the point where you could have smartphones by then, I don’t see what was innovative about iPhones.
You can call it visionary, sure because he spread his vision for a locked down phone, but where is the innovation in the iPhone?

The n900 was an interation in the n800, but sure how that can be modeled on the iPhone without time travel.
Is the iPhones invocation patenting things?

No I’m pointing out that the n900 with it’s full keyboard was not modeled of the iPhone.
