`
`operable to alter a playing of the selected audio information in association with an incoming
`
`telephonic communication (column 4 line 58 - column 5 line 2),
`
`wherein the store (storage medium) and the short-range R_F communication module 102
`
`are encased within the device 10, 30 (figures 2 and 3 and colurrm 3 lines 24-53).
`
`Although, Baughan further discloses that the consumer (electronic) device 10, 30, 50 can
`
`be a combined mobile (cellular) telephone/MP3 player (column 1 lines 13-22, column 2 lines 48-
`
`59, and column 7 lines 12-42), Baughan does not specifically disclose that the communication

`
`Shanahan, further disclose that the device 10, 30, 50 is operable to pause the selected audio
`
`information at a time subsequent to receiving the incoming telephonic communication (column 4
`
`line 58 - column 5 line 2).
`
`Consider claim 38, and as applied to claim'36 above, Baughan, as modified by
`
`Shanahan, further disclose that the device 10, 30, 50 further comprises:
`
`a display operable to display at user interface within a user interface hardware 101
`
`(figures 2 and 3, column 2 lines 3-9 and 36-41, column 3 lines 24-53, column 4 lines 36-51 and
`
`58-63, column 5 lines 36-45, column 6 lines 52-59, and colurrm 7 lines 23-38); and
`
`wherein the selected audio information includes an MP3 audio file received and stored
`
`within the store (storage medium) prior to receiving the incoming telephonic communication
`

`(not shown) for subsequent use (figure 7 and column 9 line 61 - column 10 line 39).
`
`Therefore, it would have been obvious to a person of ordinary skill in the art at the time
`
`the invention was made to incorporate a long-range communication module as taught by
`
`Shanahan in the device taught by Baughan for the purpose of receiving the selected audio
`
`information via cellular telephone communications.
`
`Consider claim 39, and as applied to claim 34 above, Baughan clearly shows and
`
`discloses the claimed invention except that the processor module is further operable to start a

`operable to play different music (audio) files in response to receiving incoming telephone calls in
`
`order to identify callers (abstract, figures 1 and 5-7, column 2 line 65 - column 3 line 40, column
`
`7 line 60 - column 8 line 5, column 8 line 64 - column 9 line 2, and column 9 line 61 - column 10
`
`line 17).
`
`Therefore, it would have been obvious to a person of ordinary skill in the art at the time
`
`the invention was made to play a different audio file in response to receiving an incoming

`
`Claim 21 is rejected under 35 U.S.C. lO3(a) as being unpatentable over Baughan (U.S.
`
`Patent # 6,510,210 B1) in view of Shanahan (US. Patent # 6,496,692 B1) as applied to claim
`
`16 above, and further in View of well known prior art (MPEP 2144.03).
`
`Consider claim 21, and as applied to claim'16 above, Baughan, as modified by
`
`Shanahan, clearly show and disclose the claimed invention except that the short—range RF
`
`communication module 102 (figures 2 and 3) is operable to scan frequencies.
`
`However, the Examiner takes Official Notice of the fact that short—range RF
`
`communication modules such as Bluetooth are well‘ known in the art to operate by scanning
`
`frequencies for the purpose oflocating anavailable frequency channel.
`
`Therefore, it would have been obvious to a person of ordinary skill in the art at the time
`
`the invention was made to slightly modify the device of Baughan, as modified by Shanahan, to
`
`allow the short-range RF communication module to’ scan frequencies for purpose of locating an
`
`available frequency channel.

`
`IN THE SPECIFICATION
`
`Please amend the paragraph on page 37, lines 9-22 as follows:
`
`Upon selecting a device, the method proceeds to step 805 where the method determines
`
`the destination of the selected audio information. If the information is to be sent to a
`
`device via a wire line connection, the method proceeds to step 813 where playlist data is
`
`sent to a user via a wire line connection. The method may then proceed to step 814
`
`where the playlist is executed at the device. If the information is to be sent to a device
`
`requiring wireless communication, the method proceeds to step 806 where the
`
`information is formatted for communicating the information to a wireless electronic
`
`device. For example, a wireless PDA device may be selected as a destination device for
`
`the selected audio information. The PDA device may include an audio player, such as an
`
`MP3 player operable to play or execute MP3 audio files. In such an embodiment, the
`
`method could format the information such that the information may be wirelessly
`
`communicated and subsequently played by the MP3 player.
`
`Please amend the paragraph on page 38, lines 14-25 as follows:
`
`Upon communicating the selected information, the method may proceed to step 810
`
`where the playlist may be executed at step 81.2. For example, a user may select a
`
`continuous communication of selected audio information (eg. several hours of music.
`
`Internet broadcast, etc.). As such, the method may continuously play or execute the
`
`received audio information. In another embodiment, the method may proceed to step 811
`
`where the method may store or buffer the received information until it is desirable to
