Answered my own question. Looks like they do have a patent on the pinch to zoom interface and recently sued HTC over patent infringement from use of something similar in some apps or something.

That sucks, as that feature is one of the things that really makes the iPad click for me. If the Android tablets can't use it, hopefully they can be creative and come up with something that works just as well. Or win in court and get the patent tossed out!
