Yes. Truly well deserved.
Steve Jobs is also on the short list for Time Magazine's person of the year.
The panel is of two minds because Jobs is no longer alive. The panelist most
opposed to honouring Jobs is actor Jesse Eisenberg who played Mark Zuckerberg
in the film The Social Network. There is a good deal of irony in this as Mark
Zuckerberg beat out Steve Jobs for the title last year. :-)

Hi WAMUGers,
Another well deserved honour to Steve Jobs.

U.S. Patent Office Honors Steve Jobs with iPhone-Shaped Exhibit:
The late Steve Jobs has been hailed as a brilliant businessman, marketer,
and visionary. He was also an prolific inventor, if the number of patents
bearing his name are any indication.
No less than 323 Apple patents list Jobs among the inventors responsible for
them. Now the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) is honoring the Apple
founder with a dedicated exhibit.”
Cheers,
Ronni
