certain versions of wm7 WILL have multitouch, thats already confirmed

as for the zune and its multitouch capability rumour, well, my guess would be that its not a communication device and that might be what apple has the patent for

remember with the palm pre coming out and its multitouch capabilities, apple has already threatened to take action against them

I'd like to see Apple even think about trying to protect their "IP". If they were to ever take any company to court over multi-touch, every corporation using multi-touch will jump in to challenge Apple's claim in order to stop any precedence from occuring. The patent office had no right to allow multi-touch to be patented.

I thought Apple's gesture was on the gestures only...

All the devices out with multitouch capabilities so far do not have a resistive touchscreen like the touch pro does

agreed, but apple had a great plan going in and they succeeded in getting the patent....

for those pondering about the contents of the patent, google it, theyre publicly available for everyone.

not sure the name of the company as i read it on engadget a while back, but im really hoping apple gets shot down
