Underneath it is OS X, don't throw out the baby with the bath water. With the iPhone OS at the surface of the API Apple simply tries to support and enforce consistent GUIs and distribution quality, an approach/strategy with many pros and cons but given the success of the entire Mac user interface one that has become very successful, including todays Windows (Microsoft copied it all, even illegally, but Apple lost that court case due to the outdated copyright laws of the 80es).
