`scope of reply, you'll see that that case cites to 37 C.F.R.
`42.23(b), which expressly says that the proper scope of reply
`includes what's in their Patent Owner's response.
` And so not only is the subclass and class on the
`face of the very patents that have been in evidence the
`entire case, but in addition to that, it's responsive to
`their Patent Owner's response.
` Can I have the next slide, please?
` The second issue that I would like to address
`that's disputed is this business about the preamble not being
`limiting and so forth. Our argument isn't that the word,
`Hand-held, appears in the preamble, but it's because it's in
`the preamble, it's not limiting. That is not our argument.
`It's almost a tempest in a teapot.
` We're kind of scratching our heads as to they're
`worried about that. We're fine with the preamble being
`limiting. The word, Hand-held, though, covers an actual
`thing in Tosaki called handgrips 14A. Tosaki actually
`says -- excuse me -- first thing -- I just want to grab
`Tosaki.
` JUDGE KAUFFMAN: For the record, we're talking
`about Slide 3 of the Petitioner's demonstratives?
