I'm not clear on this and haven't got around to reading the patent to try and figure it out.

This is the patent in question: http://www.google.com/patents/US7469381

This patent is more limited: http://www.google.com/patents/US7812826 as discussed here: http://www.engadget.com/2010/10/13/apple-awarded-limited-pat...

However - it was granted after the first patent (2010 vs 2008)

That first one isn't related to multitouch, it's about bounce-back when scrolling with a single finger.
