Well the Eden came out in 2006, so maybe the other way around...
In reality there are many single hoop with supported ends tents.
The best known is the Hilleberg Akto but most European manufacturer have used that design.
The difference is typically how the end is supported. Some use one strut, some two, others use a pole .
The Moment has borrowed the PitchLoc corner (that triangular thingo..) from the Scarp.
Having fiddled with the other designs I think that the PitChLoc is a very clever solution(strong,light and easy to place in tension)
Note that the Eden is a two wall tent whilst the Moment is an hybrid (fly with one full wall)

BTW, having being at home for two years doing nothing (hence my time on the forums) I have decided to get involved on the business side of Tarptent.
So I will have some stock here for people in my area to have a look, play with and possibly buy.
This is still more of a hobby than a business (IE, I would be making more on unemployment benefits...) but gives me something to do.
Please keep in mind that my comments relate to the way I see it, not necessarily Henry's point of view.
