OK, I'm probably an idiot, but Apple is applying for a patent for multi-touch how? Sure seems like the world already has plenty of prior art in it. Ignore me because I am a patent hater, especially when patents are granted on other people's ideas that have been around for forever. And yes, on the idea of touching these multi-touches, recall that in MR there was an interface worn on the hands to get around the gooey mess problem brought about by actually having to touch the touchscreen.
