When Apple bought multitouch maestros FingerWorks for their talent (and patents, ‘natch), they kept FingerWorks.com and all it’s old product photos and pictures online and intact. No longer, according to MacRumors:
The removal seems to correspond with the impending announcement of an Apple tablet later this month. One possible explanation is that Apple will finally be implementing many of the same advanced multi-touch keyboard gestures that were originally pioneered by Fingerworks.
And, again to speculate widely, a possibly closely aligned iPhone 4.0, since Apple has proven over and over again that they’re very good at leveraging technology developed for one platform to another.
