Twitterfone launched May 7. Fire Eagle went into beta at ETech two months before (and the design was locked down many months before).

Did the MobileCrunch editor really not know the dates of when the designs debuted or is he just trolling for hits and maliciously casting aspersions?

(Even then the designs are only similar at the most superficial level. One is pixelboy and the is vector cartoony.)

i believe you have it reversed – twitterfone copied fireeagle.

fireeagle beta launched in 2007 and has looked that way ever since it launched — proof by techcrunch:

and twitterfone launched in 2008 -

(from the first line- “twitterfone launched in May”).

hence, twitterfone copied fireeagle, not the other way around.
