(Dunno if hotlink will work, here's the original article)
Windows Mobile 7 images. Notice anything familiar? I think Microsoft's just stopped trying to be original. Maybe they've figured out they don't have to, people will buy it anyway.

so who did they steal that highlighting function from? I bet they stole copy and paste abilities too.

Uhh, the only thing that looks remotely similar is the keyboard.

At least they have highlighting in theirs which means there is some possibility for copy and paste. Not so in the iPhone unless Jobs surprises us tomorrow.

The bottom one is a single picture, I was emphasizing the keyboard. Microsoft has gone all "shiny black" with their Windows Mobile. They look like OS X Widgets. It also looks like they took an Aqua button, then added a lens flare.
