Bear and Monkey smack Apple with patent suit
,----[ Quote ]
| Apple has been slapped with another patent
| infringement lawsuit - but the suit says more
| about the festering sore that is the US
| patent system than it does about the
| individual patents involved.
|
| The lawsuit was filed by Austin, Texas
| inventor Eric Gould Bear, President and CEO
| of interface design firm MonkeyMedia. The
| core of his infringement claim is that his
| patents cover a user-interface concept that
| he calls "Seamless Contraction" - essentially
| a set of techniques to narrow the display of
| information to that which is most "salient,"
| to use his term, to the user's needs.
