Sorry, I thought we were talking about the User Interface not the input
methods...

Not sure about touchscreens, Wikipedia says "Virtually all of the
significant touchscreen technology patents were filed during the 1970s and
1980s and have expired."

And I'm sure that the gyroscopic sensors were around back when "Tomorrow's
World" was on...

Perhaps this just proves Android=mashup OS?
