They did the same with my Samsung phone. It has a capacitive touch screen and just because Apple has patented the 2-finger use in the USA - which doesn't mean **** in Europe - they never dared to enable it here.

It was similar with Samsungs smartphone UI, Apple also went on against this.
Looks like they have some vendetta, which is a little odd as Samsung is still a chip purveyor for Apple.
I wouldn't be surprised when the European Commission have a good look at Apple the way they did with Microsoft.
