Apple Tries to Patent Travel, Hotel, Shopping Apps

Apple is trying to patent travel, hotel and shopping apps? Surely they can’t be serious. Actually, the more I think about it, the USPTO will probably grant Apple’s patent application and Steve Jobs will have the last laugh on all of us.

Unwired View unearthed three patent applications filed on Apple's behalf that cover travel- and shopping-related apps. One for travel booking, one for hotel services, and another for high-end fashion retail. All three were applied for between October and December, but were published by the US Patent and Trademark Office on Thursday.
