Apple's new patent: Touchscreen iMac with adjustable stand

Yet another patent filed by  Apple, which depicts an iMac that transitions between mouse/keyboard-based input and touch-based input through an adjustable stand, which was published by the World Intellectual Property Organization, is titled “Transitioning Between Modes of Input”
According to the filing, various sensors, such as accelerometers or position sensors, would detect a change in the orientation of a computer’s touch-screen, thereby triggering a change between “input modes and corresponding user interfaces.” The change in input could also modify an on-screen item or window, potentially “enlarging/reducing, obscuring/unobscuring, moving, etc.”
Apple also file another patent yesterday, the touchscreen MacBook patent. Put together, the two patents are a pretty strong indication that Apple is seriously looking at unifying Mac OS X and iOS and has figured out how to do it. Lets see when Apple actually implement these patents……..
