Interestingly the new iPhone 5 has an app called Panorama designed to

Hmmm. Apple "stealing" something that's been on Sony camera's at least
for a good while now. Wonder if Sony will sue them? I'm sure Panorama is
the Sony name for the feature as well, so two birds for Sony there!

Looks like it's called Sweep Panorama and has been Sony's since at least
2009 from what I can find.
Cheers,

PS. Yes, I'm not an Apple fan, not since the "Apple ][e" - which I used
in college and coveted, but couldn't afford. It had two 5.5" floppy
drives "built in".
