`Challenged Claims
`
`1. A portable smart card reader device for reading
`a smart card having recorded information stored
`on an integrated circuit incorporated into the
`card, the device comprising:
`a sensor for reading said recorded information stored
`on said integrated circuit incorporated into said
`card and for producing an analog signal
`indicative of the recorded information, said
`sensor including circuitry for converting said
`analog signal to a format / an encrypted signal
`suitable for transmission to a jack of a mobile
`communication device; and
`an output jack adapted to be inserted into a jack
`associated with said mobile communication
`device for providing the converted / encrypted
`signal indicative of the recorded information to
`said mobile communication device for
`transmission to a transaction server for further
`processing.
`’566 and ’637 Patents (Ex. 1001) at cls. 1-4, further processing requirement only in claim 3
`DEMONSTRATIVE EXHIBIT – NOT EVIDENCE
`
`The card reader device from claim 1, in
`which the smart card is selected from a
`group consisting of a chip card, EMV card,
`proximity detector or NFC card, contactless
`card, or any combination thereof.
`3. A method for reading a smart card …
`… said portable card reader device produces an
`encrypted analog / analog signal…
`providing said encrypted analog / analog
`signal… to said mobile communication
`device for further processing by circuitry
`contained in said mobile communication
`device…
`The card reader device from claim 3, in
`which the smart card is selected from a
`group consisting of a chip card, EMV card,
`proximity detector or NFC card, contactless

`
` Colnot’s signal transmissions through cellular phone networks would not be
`corrupted
`“The technical reason that the terminal cannot communicate over digital cellular networks is the
`‘vocoders’ in the cellular voice transmission path. These vocoders compress the voice signals,
`making more conversations possible in the same bandwidth, thereby conserving spectrum.
`While effective for transmitting spoken words, the compression responds to modem tones in a
`way that corrupts the data carried therein, and renders the result unusable.”
`Proctor (Ex. 1007) at ¶4
`
`–
`
`“Colnot describes a specific FSK modem signal having the same frequencies as spoken words
`. . . [and] the POSITA would have understood from Proctor’s statement that the cellular
