` So it's generally that group, that
` business segment board, would have a leader, and
` then it would likewise include our president
` Cliff Pemble in terms of review. So I think for
` consumer products, both Cliff and Dan Bartel
` would be involved in this level of decision.
` Q Okay. I don't have any other
` questions.
` (The reporter marked Exhibit No.
` Krull 1.)
` EXAMINATION
` QUESTIONS BY MR. HART:
` Q I'm handing the witness what's been
` marked Krull 1. Mr. Krull, can you take a look at
` this document, and let me know if you've seen it
` before.
` A (Witness complies.) Yes, I have seen
` it before.
` Q And what is this document?
` A This is the StreetPilot owner's
` manual. This would be the first generation of
` StreetPilot products.
` Q And for the record, I'll read it in.
` It's beginning with Bates label GR --
` GARM-PRIART-012534.

`
` Mr. Krull, I'll have you turn to the third
` page that ends in 536.
` A Okay. (Witness complies.)
` Q The last line of text on this page,
` there's a date May 1998 and a part number that
` ends in Rev-A.
` A I see it.
` Q Are you familiar with that
` terminology?
` A Yes.
` Q And what does -- what does that
` indicate to you?
` A With our part numbering system in our
` document control configuration management, we use
` numeric numbers as revisions while something is in
` an experimental release. When it goes to a
` production release, then we increment to start
` letters.
` So Rev-A would indicate the first
` production revision of a particular item, in this
` case a document or a manual.
` Q And the May 1998, does that mean the
` first version of the StreetPilot I was released to
` the public in that month?
` MR. ZORETIC: Objection, leading.

`
` A So the document is dated 1998 and that
` is Revision A, so by that, then yes, this would
` have been the revision of the manual that was
` released for production. And the date of that
` document is May 1998.
` Q (By Mr. Hart) You testified that this
` revision of the manual would have been released
` for production in May 1998. Would the product
` itself also have been released in May 1998?
` A Yes. Ultimately the manual is always
` trying to catch up with the product in terms of
` the feature set. We generally have changes to the
` product, especially from a user interface
` perspective, pictures, screenshots and stuff, so
` if the manual gets too far ahead, it can become
` absolute.
` So it would not have been released until
` the product was eminent, right, so the two would
` literally be released in the same, you know,
` timeframe, days apart, maybe even a week, but
` close enough that I think the month of May would
` be representative.
` Q Okay, very good. I'll have you turn
` to manual page six. It's a Bates number that ends
` 550.
