Then why do you have an arrow saying that QNX is a version of symbian thru RTOS... and now even samsung.

"mobile use" is misleading, plenty of mobile phones had oses made for desktop computers including nokia9000/9100.
DOS was also used in parallell with epoc for PDAs on plenty of devices (atari portfolio and HP) before mobiles had any ability to do more than phonecalls (and later) sms.
-You really need to define what you are talking about... is it iconcolours, windowborders and interfacegestures ... or is it the actual os behind the hood you are trying to make a history of.

BTW, linux also has some RTOS versions, aswell as windows.
