The image is wrong. According to a post in the reddit thread, as well as Samsung's own website, Samsung unveiled that phone in February 2007, one month after Apple showed the iPhone.
Looking at Samsung's photos, I do not see how it's possible for anyone to say that Apple was copying them. Samsung probably can make a case on the home screen format(4 icons, bottom row, etc.), but the overall design is quite different. The F700 has a physical keyboard.
