    Erm they implemented Multi-touch without Apple's permission, who owns the patent.

    Multi-touch is a natural technological progression. Things like that shouldn't be patented.

    It's like Apple saying they patented DVD burners. Everyone else then has just to read disks and not write them unless on an Apple because they patented it even though DVD-RW is the natural technological progression from DVD-ROM.

    Probably not the best example.

    A better example would be if a games producer had decided to patent games being 3D after they stopped being 2D, where would we be today if that had happened?

    Clearly it doesn't matter or it would have been banned.
