Hi List,
I read about Apple -of all companies- trying to run away with an idea that was discussed (at least by myself, and probably by others as well) on the mailing list as well as off line:

It seems to cover using a telephone's touchsreen as the input for another system. I would say it's lacks the innovative step necessary for a valid patent, but that's probably only the reasoning of sane people. 
Would it be something to worry about?
Best regards,
Boudewijn
