These screenshots compare the Where To? 1.0 design (released on day one of the App Store) and an Apple patent submitted in December 2009. FutureTap describes their concern in a recent blog post:

Yeah, this story is more than a little shady. I’m pretty sure you can’t patent someone else’s idea. Who knows though?...
