As with alternative Apple patents, you’ll find Jonathan P. Ives as well as Steve (no “P”) Jobs listed among the fourteen inventors, as well as you’ll additionally find copiousness of references to earlier patents and other applicable devices — including the pointer to nothing alternative than asingle of our posts upon a infamous Meizu M8.
