“a rectangular phone with a touchscreen on which 3rd party apps can run”

Not to mention I’m pretty sure I already had one of those in 2005, an HTC 6700 Windows Mobile phone from Sprint.

You mean this thing?

Not at all anything like the iPhone... , blue LED backlight, 240 x 320 pixel resolution 2.88" 64K color TFT color resistance grid touch screen, requiring a stylus to make selections, and it did not have the capabilities of the iPhone... it had addressbook, browser (if you could call it that), mail, calendar, calculator, notes, messaging, a simple camera, and a few simplistic games. It was a "feature phone." It had no multitouch, no music, no video, no capability of adding third party apps.
