Firs...In my opinion this is bad news for everyone. Firstly, I saw a demo of multi touch long before apple came out with the Iphone. Now Apple may have aquired that technology - I don't know, but even if they did, there is a fine line between protecting ones 'property' and stifling inovation. <BR/>From the rumors I'm reading on the web, it seems that Apple are aiming their legal guns at Palm over the Palm Pre. I personally hope that this doesn't happen. It would be bad for Palm and bad for Apple. Bad for Palm for the obvious reasons, but bad for Apple as without competition, then what is the insentive to stay on top of the game?<BR/><BR/>Anyway, sorry for the rant - just my two cents...Roadtrekkin RV Adventureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01669058593008548347noreply@blogger.com
