Nokia granted slide-to-unlock patent of their own

Back in October of 2011, we reported that Apple had been granted the slide-to-unlock patent, a pretty important patent as far as smartphones are concerned, and recently it looks like Nokia has been granted a slide-to-unlock patent of their own, although in this case while the sliding motion is present, it differs from Apple's own patent which hopefully will not cause either company to end up suing each other.
