A U.S. multi-national corporation and a consistent Fortune top 500 company lister, may be preparing another sold out product of an iPhone nano.
Apple Inc. could have an iPhone nano up its sleeve, according to a patent uncovered by the MacNN blog.
The patent describes a device that is 3.6 inches tall, 2.5 inches wide, and one-quarter inch thick, or about the size of an iPod Nano.
But it also has a screen on the front and a “force-sensitive touch-surface” on the back that works like a cursor on the front screen when a user moves his finger around on it.
MacNN said the patent was originally owned by John G. Elias, the founder of FingerWorks, but that it was transferred to Apple when he sold his company's assets to the Cupertino company. Elias now works for Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL).
Drawings and more description of the device can be found at the MacNN blog.
