Apple's new multitouch patent

  Snippet from the article: "It covers the basic user interface concept of moving touch-screen content with multitouch gestures--not just one particular way to programmatically recognize one particular gesture for this purpose, but any or all ways to do so," Mueller said. "This patent describes the solution at such a high level that it effectively lays an exclusive claim to the problem itself, and any solutions to it."

  So wouldn't Apple essentially be able to sue any smart phone company with this?
