I know what you're thinking, "So what if Apple gets another patent?" or "What's left that they don't already have?". Apparently what Apple doesn't have is a multitouch patent that can distinguish between how many fingers are touching an item on the screen and how that item can be manipulated/maneuvered in a frame or the whole screen. Confused? Probably, if you click HERE you can see the wonderful box of a phone drawing with all its lovely arrows, numbers, and letters in tact. It's pretty big news and it seems to have a lot of competitors on the edge of their seats. I love Apple products, but I wouldn't mind seeing someone gain the upper hand.
