Yeah, but “eliminating a physical keyboard for a touchscreen” is literally the defining hallmark or all modern smartphone. After Apple, they are all black glass rectangles.
That’s like saying all Ford did was apply four wheels to an internal combustion engine, none of which he invented.

Again, the Palm Pilot and many other PDAs had no keyboards. They just weren't phones.
The reason the Palm Pilot used a stylus was because the designers didn't like the idea of grubby fingerprints all over the screen. Go figure.
I feel part of the reason Steve Jobs was so against a stylus for the iPhone or iPad was because people might look into the history of the devices Apple copied and realize it really wasn't the first after all. It's no coincidence it took nearly 4 years after Jobs' death before the Apple Pencil was released.
The Sony Clie is yet another example of a device that came out 5 years before the iPhone.
