Just for information in case you havent heard of it, N900 is technically capable of doing multitouch, so do many other smartphones. It is not that difficult to achieve. The fact that only iPhone has multitouch is not due to its technical superiority, it is simple because of the fact that Apple is holding the corresponding patent, and Apple is unwilling to license anyone else to use multitouch.

So anyone who is blaming its phone not having multitouch while it should be, blame Apple.

Numerous Android handsets have multitouch as do the WebOS phones. Also, the Nokia N8 does as well.

I am quite certain that resistive screens are not capable of multitouch (Stantum screens have been demonstrated but that is still a hardware issue)

In every discussion about multitouch this point is achieved and argument about apple holding the corresponding patent is brought. I do not doubt that in any way. However, isn't Apple holding this patent in the US? It would be possible for Nokia to introduce on "rest of the world" devices, wouldn't it?

I have not heard of this. What you may be thinking of is 'pseudo multitouch' which is just a gimmicky way to use 2 fingers on a non multitouch screen (rubbish really).

The fact that only iPhone has multitouch is not due to its technical superiority,
It is because they use capacitive screen.
Resistive screen proponents may want to read up (and wait and pay for) Stantum screens.


it is simple because of the fact that Apple is holding the corresponding patent, and Apple is unwilling to license anyone else to use multitouch.

My colleagues sometime blame god, the universe and their parents too when they make mistakes

Good question. There are three major patent registration offices, USPO is only one of them, if you paid enough, any patent lawyer can help you file your patient to all offices, including China patent office. So we would not be surprised to see big corp like Apple and MS could file all their patents to all patent offices around the world.

Even when the patent is only filed at USPO, the patent owner can still file lawsuit against patent infringement in countries joint WTO(under some condition I skip here). Say, which major mobile market isnt under WTO?

Ask india, who is the major victim of uncountable patent infringement lawsuits, ever since they joint WTO.
