It used to be in Android until Apple made it a 1 billion dollar lawsuit and banned everyone else in the universe from implementing it.
Those bouncing lists. 1 billion dollar. And Apple is not a patent-troll. No siree.
These days most Android-phones have a "overflow" effect when reaching the end of a list. Specifically designed to avoid lawsuits.
Because if it's the first then it is just a hypocritical position. And if it's the second then maybe you don't understand the math. Size of lawsuit = Price per patent * Number of infringing devices.
It's because the number of devices sold is so large that it ends up being such a large lawsuit.
That someone can build a 1 billion dollar beast on top of that, what any decent software engineer can do in a matter of days, just makes it so much worse.
Some people have a rather mellow attitude to it all and simply say "Don't hate the player, hate the game". I proclaim the right to hate the game and anyone who plays it. Apple should have some pride and a sense of dignity. Apple should be better than this.
Clearly they are not.
Secondly what a software engineer can do in a matter of days is a ridiculous and pointless measure of anything. I could build Google's original search engine once I knew exactly how it worked. It's the "how it works" part that is novel.
Thirdly you completely fail at understanding the maths here. The only reason it is a billion dollar idea is because Samsung sells so many devices.
The USPTO disagrees: http://www.fosspatents.com/2012/10/patent-office-tentatively...
"In a non-final Office action the USPTO has declared all 20 claims of Apple's rubber-banding patent (U.S. Patent No, 7,469,381 invalid [for prior art and obviousness]... A finding of anticipation is a determination that there was no inventive step at all."
