Breakfast briefing: Apple, lawsuits and flying cars

• You might know that Taiwanese chip designer Elan is suing Apple amid claims of patent infringement for multitouch technology. Engadget has pointed out video of Elan's system running on Android - interesting, since Google has shied away from Android multitouch support.

• Talking of Apple, seen the Wall Street Journal's report that Steve Jobs is still running things from home might have passed you by over Easter. Feels a bit like a bit of a planted story, but it'll be interesting to see what happens in June, when Jobs is due back at work.

• And it could be time to break out the jet packs, robot butlers and voice controlled houses... because flying cars could be ready after years of failure, according to the New York Times.
