Did Archos just copy Pandora

[00001111]

I was looking at this new Archos Android TV thing and it really looks like they lifted the keyboard and analog nubs from Pandora.

Analog nubs are not very unique. But if you ask me it's poor judgment to use them on a standalone controller, instead of sticks. Don't know what to say about the keyboard, it's a keyboard. The layout doesn't look similar to Pandora's. The key style may be closer than some, but if the rendering is very accurate I'd say they look lower profile/flatter. Seems like you could just as soon argue they ripped off the old XBox 360 controller + keyboard, which predates Pandora:
