iPhone on Lost?



I'm not much of a "Lost" fan (I guess you could say I "lost" interest in season one. Ha!). However, many people are, including TUAW reader David who noticed that the UI of a "satellite phone" used on last night's episode looked kind of familiar (Reader loki the first has posted a much larger screenshot here). Those rounded square buttons, even the real Mac OS X "Home" icon...heck, that's an iPhone! OK, an iPhone crammed into a Newton, but the similarities are pretty striking. Heck, note the hand position in both photos (yes, we realize that there are only so many ways to hold a cell phone).

So now they've got an iPhone before anyone else. That island really IS strange...

Thanks, David!
