Looks nothing like the iPhone and shockingly wasn't even a phone.

I believe when people are saying the "looks like the iphone" they're referring to device where the primary input method is the screen, with less emphasis on physical buttons.

The first Windows Mobile phones were just WinMo PDAs with cellular radios in them. So while the iPaq isn't a phone it's the direct predecessor to many of them.

The iPaq is a particularly direct predecessor as you could get a GSM/GPRS sleeve for it.
