Don't see anything wrong with it. If Apple didn't do it, some other company would have. Just protecting themselves, IMO.
post #54 of 118
With them patenting every thing, better hope they don't go and patent overclock. Might wanna do that before apple does.

The sad truth is that I'm still surprised. Just when I think it can't get any worse they always surprise me and hit me with something twice as bad as the one before it. Isn't one of Google's investigations dealing with them being too aggressive with patents?

Really nothing to worry about. I mean, it's just a page turn. When Samsung releases the Galaxy S4 then we'll have to do a backflip to turn the page. Sure it'll take some getting used to but could be fun when you get the hang of it. Not a problem with the patent office at all, they're doing a good job of protecting innovation and great ideas.

EDIT: This block system is amazing. Now I don't accidentally read AnAppleAday's posts yet I can still do it if I feel like killing some brain cells. Thank you OCN thumb.gif

Ridiculous. And more ammo for hating Apple even more.

lol, like we needed anymore ammo.

I thought all the e-readers already had some sort of page animation, or perhaps they patented a specific looking animation....

Not an Apple fan but honestly this one isn't that bad. They are just patenting their specific animation for the page turn on an electronic device.
