Pretty sure a real gentleman wouldn't sit on the board of a company whilst at the same time building a competitor product.

I don't think a single statement is enough to define someone a gentleman or not, but anyway, he did resign from apple's board to avoid conflict of interest. Source: http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/03/googles-eric-schmidt-resi...

As far as I know, he refused to attend some meetings pertaining to iPhone and he eventually decided it would be best for him to resign.
