Apple Wins Patent on Multi Touch


Cnet reports that Apple has won a patent on Multi Touch and many of the innovation associated with the iphone such as Pinch and Zoom.

This will ring a warning bell for palm, blackberry and of course microsoft which is launching Multi Touch in its New Windows 7 OS. We can expect plenty of court action here as the heavies challenge the patent.

This story was brought to our attention by Richard Sarno, our New York based Iphone Geek. If you are looking to develop an iPhone app, contact Richard and he will take care of you (Ask for Richard).
