Microsoft just released their next-gen touch-screen technology called Microsoft Surface. Microsoft has a demo of the technology where they touch two separate parts of the screen to stretch out a photograph. Does this ring a bell? It's exactly the same as Apple's "pinch" demonstration for the iPhone. It's also the same as Jeff Han's technology he's been demonstrating over the past couple of years. I wonder who owns the patent to all of this? How long until they are in a courtroom brewing up injunctions and screwing over consumers?
