Apple is currently embroiled in their fair share of patent suits worldwide, that some of us out there might think that as a corporation, they are nothing but heartless executives who weigh down their potential competitors with heavy law tomes. Perhaps this bit of news might help you change your mind – it seems that Apple is already licensing one of their patents, where it is described as list scrolling and document manipulation on a touchscreen display. Patent #7,469,381, is known as "List Scrolling and Document Translation, Scaling, and Rotation on a Touch-Screen Display" which Apple has already licensed it to IBM and Nokia.
