Subject: Speculate this / TrekStor touchpad???
A buddy of mine who knows how much I like the vibez stumbled across this interesting article: http://www.dailytech.com/Apple+Other+DAP+Makers+Sued+in+Texas+Court/article15737c.htm
Here's the money quote, make of it what you will:
I'm not completely sure what to make of this in light of the "insolvency" story. But it does raise interesting questions about what those crazy Germans might be up to. Hmmmm....

Listed in the suit are Apple, Microsoft, Cowon, iRiver, LG, Bang & Olufsen, Philips, and TrekStor among others. In all there are 20 different defendants named in the case. The allegations made by Tsera are that the defendants are all infringing on a patent granted to Tsera in 2003 that covers different swipe movements on a touchpad without having to provide visual feedback or look at the player to understand what's taking place.
