Oh, please.

Und Larry Yaeger sagt auf Newtontalk:

There was a flurry of phone calls and emails yesterday because of the new patent filing, with my name as lead inventor. But as I told Rik Myslewski, it really is just a collection of the bits not previously granted in a much older patent application (much of which was finally granted in July of this year). Rik covered the issue fairly well, I thought. The bogus headline and teaser was his editor's doing, and Rik actually emailed me to bemoan it himself.

If those stories about Apple ordering a bunch of 9" screens are true, there might yet be something of interest coming, but the filing of this patent just isn't terribly informative one way or the other.
