Microsoft has been granted a U.S. patent on using short, long or double clicks on the same button to launch different applications—though only on "limited resource computing devices" such as PDAs or mobile phones.
Now, U.S. companies that use such a variety of clicks on one button to launch separate software functions will have to change their products, pay licensing fees to Microsoft or give Microsoft access to their intellectual property in return.
