Patently Apple writes, Many Patently Apple fans emailed me wondering why we weren't covering the "big story" about Apple's "pinch to zoom" patent being deemed invalid. The bottom line for not covering it was because there was no definitive ruling. Most sites were claiming that Apple's pinch-to-zoom and rubber-banding patents had been found to be invalid; that the US Patent Office outright rejected Apple's patents. Yet that's not what took place in the last week, and these wild claims will eventually be seen as little more than a pipe dream crafted by the anti-Apple camp. There's nothing new to that old story.
