iOS 1 was an inevitable jump from Palm OS and the early days of touch screen. The tech had been in demos before, but there was such a lack of UX work beforehand that it never took off. That, and capacitive screens/advancing tech.

The thing is, Android copied most of the UX (and I say that as someone that likes Android a lot more than iOS, and I had a Palm before).

I agree that Apple's UX was a significant advance. (See this 2007 review talking about "paradigm-shifting interface"
