Your screenshot is one of a browser and a settings window, and a status bar at the top. My current android phone (running Android 2.5) has a browser and a settings window, with a status bar at the top.
My desktop browser can also point at google.com. It also has a status bar at the top, unrelated to the browser. I can also open up a browser-specific settings window and overlay it on the browser.
The guy on the macbook pro next to me also has a browser he can point to google, with settings overlay if he wants, and an unrelated status bar at the top.
How about the fact that everything is button based, instead of touch screen based? Do you still have to go through a menu dialogue to input a website on your Android phone? The screenshot demonstrates that pre-2007, Android was along the lines of Palm and Windows Mobile. Post 2007, it was along the lines of iPhone.
Fair point, but welcome also to evolution. Yes, the iphone was a big step forward in public access to touchscreen phones. It was an awesome product - the only problem is that people credit it for outright invention of far more than was actually invented.
But 'do I still have to go through a menu dialogue to input a website'? Well, yes. Once I'm at a site, the URL bar disappears, and I have to interact with the phone to get to a point where I can enter it again. It's not specifically 'a menu', but it is 'reveal to me this interface'

Your screenshot does not make an argument.
