Apple wins a patent for Sharing Information across devices in a 'Linked Mode' that may or not be the foundation of 'Continuity'
Today the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office officially granted Apple a patent that relates to an all-new manner of operation referred to as a Linked Mode wherein an iPhone could rest against a MacBook Display and share information wirelessly by dragging and dropping. Whether this is something new in-the-works or the foundation for Apples Continuity feature is a little unclear. One or more scenario presented in this granted patent provide features unavailable with todays Continuity.
