`
`Q.
`
`Is there any reason the application could not
`
`select some type of a keyboard that already existed in the
`
`operating system?
`
`A.
`
`It can. That is one of the things that it can
`
`do.
`
`It's not
`
`the only thing.
`
`I
`
`think this claim language
`
`doesn't limit it to that, but that is within the space of
`
`what it can do.
`
`Q. You mentioned the concept of uniqueness, and
`
`there's a lot to unpack in your answer there, but let's
`
`start with uniqueness.
`
`Is it your opinion that claim 3
`
`requires a unique keyboard? Or unique delineations?
`
`A.
`
`My reading of claim 3 is it's broad enough to
`
`cover both unique and non—unique delineations just reading
`
`claim 3.

`
`Q. would you agree that claim 3 does not require a
`
`custom layout on a key—by—key basis?
`
`A. As
`
`I understand require —— like I said,
`
`I think
`
`it's broad enough to cover both, so I —— my understanding
`
`of require would be that no, it does not require that, but
`
`it covers the case of unique. And certainly the example
`
`of unique seems to be covered in the specification
`
`illustrated in the specification.
`
`Q. Understood.
`
`Is it your opinion that claim 3 does
`
`not require unconventional keyboards or unconventional
`
`delineated active areas?
`
`A.
`
`I believe it does not require unconventional.

`PATENT OWNER’S VIEW ON LIEBENOW
`
`• “At most, Liebenow teaches different emulated keyboards provided
`by the system and selected by an application.”
`
`• Nothing more is required, even according to PO’s own expert Dr.
`MacLean.

` •
`
` Dr. Welch explains that “[a] person of ordinary skill in the art would have
`appreciated the inertial sensors taught by Hedberg could enable the
`information appliance of Liebenow to detect whether or not it was being held
`in a portrait or landscape position.”
`• Even Dr. MacLean agrees rotational movement that provides landscape and
`portrait views would be useful in a data entry context.

`PATENT OWNER’S POSITION
`
`PO makes the following assumptions regarding Liebenow:
`1. “Liebenow’s device would have been seen by one skilled in the art as being
`in the same category as other tablet computers of that time period”
`
`
`2. “[T]ablets of the late 1990s and early 2000s were ‘specialized machines,
`focusing in vertical markets such as healthcare, construction, field service
`and retail.’ (Ex. 2005, Lim ¶ 95.)”
`
`
`Based on these assumptions, PO draws the conclusion:
`• “Thus, one skilled in the art looking at Liebenow’s device would have
`understood that adding games to Liebenow would have detracted from its
`purpose and would not have been a desirable addition from the perspective
`of the market to which tablets like Liebenow’s were targeted in the early
`2000s.”

`PO’S VIEW ON GRIFFIN AND LIEBENOW
`
`PO argues that a PHOSITA would not have incorporated the touch
`panels of Liebenow on the back surface of Griffin because:
`
`1. “Griffin’s focus on thumb input teaches away from adding input
`functions to the back.”
`
`2. “Liebenow’s teachings regarding how to make back-surface
`keyboards work well could not be effectively implemented on
`Griffin.”
`
`3. “Liebenow’s implementation of keys such as Shift and Alt teaches
`away from the proposed combination.”

`another embodiment where the hard keys are replaced by touch
`panels to emulate keys.”

`thereby predictably increasing the functionality of the Griffin’s device
`without substantially increasing its size.”

`‘313 PATENT – CLAIM 1
`
`• Pallakoff discloses:
`• “For example, an ‘Alternative Letter’ side-button could act like the ‘Alt’ key or the

`
`
`
`
`
`PO’S PALLAKOFF ARGUMENT
`
`• PO argues “Pallakoff teaches away from implementing modifier
`buttons on the back” because “Pallakoff teaches the modifier
`buttons on the side only.”
`
`• Based on this, PO concludes that Pallakoff “teaches away from
`implementing modifier buttons with Ishihara’s rear touchpad.”
