`
`REMARKS
`
`The Office Action mailed March 1 1, 201 i has been received and reviewed. By the

`present Response and Amendment, Claims 2, 3, 7 and i i have been amended. No new matter is
`
`introduced. Claim i has been cancelled previously.
`
`Claim Rejections - 35 U.S. C. § 103
`
`The Examiner's rejection of Claims 2-10 under U.S.C. § 1103(a) as being unpatentable
`
`over Keating et al. (IJS 2004/0082352) in view of Maggenti et al. (US 2002/006i762) is
`
`respectfully traversed.
`
`The Keating (US 2004/0082352)
`
`reference describes an enhanced group call
`
`implementation having nothing to do with Applicant's claimed invention providing a forced
`
`message alert and requiring a specific response from a recipient selected from the prepared list of
`
`responses prior to the recipients display being cleared of the message and required response.
`
`Figures 2 and 4 of Keating show flowcharts delineating the essence of the
`
`communication system disclosed in Keating. The flowcharts are described in detail in paragraphs
`
`0022 and 003i of Keating. There is no discussion or disclosure that would suggest the system
`
`and method recited in amended Claims 2, 7 and i i concerning the initiation of a required
`
`response from a recipient which is automatically transmitted by the recipient' s device and the
`
`requirement in response to the forced message alert that the recipient must respond with a
`
`particular answer selected from previously provided list of potential answers especially before
`
`the recipient's display screen can be cleared. In fact, Keating is concerned with the accurate
`
`billing that reflects specific time spent by the mobile station participating in a group call. See
`
`paragraph 0030 Keating. The purpose and function of the group calling system in Keating is

`
`Serial No.: 12/324,122
`Attorney Docket No.: 10963.3819
`IATENT
`
`completely different than Applicant's claimed system and methods recited in the amended
`
`Claims 2, 7 and i I . The statement of the Examiner that "Keating discloses a forced message alert
`
`software application program" Applicant respectfully submits is incorrect and has a stretched
`
`interpretation of what is actually disclosed in Keating.
`
`The Maggenti et al. (US 2002/0061762) reference discloses a method for sending a
`
`message to a communication device to determine whether the communication device wishes to
`
`be a participant and then lists the communication device as a participant if there is a response to a
`
`message within a predetermined time. See paragraphs 0010 and 0011 . There is no teaching or
`
`disclosure of Applicant' s claimed system and method in Maggenti et al.
`
`The communication system recited in amended Claims 7 and i I includes a forced
`
`message alert software system that requires a response from the recipient of a specific answer
`
`from a selected list before the recipient can clear the recipient's display. This is completely
`
`different in function and structure than a system asking whether a participant wants to stay as a
`
`participant in the net.
`
`It is Applicants position - even if a person of ordinary skill in the art were to combine
`
`the Keating reference with the Maggenti et al. reference, Applicant's claimed invention as recited
`
`in the amended Claims 2 and 7 at issue could not possibly result because of the lack of relevant
`
`disclosure in the references when combined. Therefore, the Examiner has not established aprima
`
`facie case of obviousness under 35 U.S.C. § 103 with respect to Claims 2 - 10.

`
`The Examiner's rejection of Claims ii
`
`- 14 under 35 [J.S.C.
`
`§ 103(a) as being
`
`unpatentabie over Keating et aL (US 2004/0082352) in view of Dalton et al. (US 2004/0192365)
`
`is respectfully traversed.
`
`The Dalton (US 2004/0192365) communication system is a completely different system
`
`than Applicant's claimed communication system and method recited in Claims 1 i - 14. A key
`
`element in Dalton is a data concentrator computer with a gateway device for communicating
`
`with the data concentrator computer so that the gateway device provides communications data
`
`between a first mobile data acquisition device and a second mobile data acquisition device
`
`without communication with the data concentrator computer. Paragraphs 0010, 0014 and 0015 in
`
`Dalton describe a system to manage two or more mobile devices forming a business data
`
`collection and to communicate asynchronously in the operational needs of a business application.
`
`None of the functions described in the Dalton reference have anything to do with providing a
`
`forced message alert as required in Claims i i - 14 as amended. Applicant reiterates the
`
`comments above with respect to the Keating reference. Again, the combination of Keating and
`
`Dalton cannot result in Applicants claimed invention because the references together fail to
`
`suggest Applicant's claimed invention. It is Applicant's position that the Examiner has failed to
`
`establish a prima fade case of obviousness with respect to Claims i i - 14.
`
`As an initiai matter, the Examiner bears the initiai burden of factually supporting any
`
`primafacie conclusion of obviousness. MPEP § 2143. A claim is obvious under 35 [J.S.C. §103
`
`if and only if the references relied on teach or suggest each and every element of the claimed
`
`invention, and it would be obvious to one skilled in the art to combine the references so relied
`
`on. A rationale to support a conclusion that a claim would have been obvious is that all the
`
`claimed elements were known in the prior art and one skilled in the art could have combined the

`
`elements as claimed by known methods with no change in their respective known methods with
`
`no change in their respective functions, and the combination would have yielded nothing more
`
`than predictable results to one of ordinary skill in the art. KSR International Co KSR

`
`Sakraida y. AG Pro,, Inc.,. 425 [15. 273, 282 (1976).
`
`In determining the differences between the prior art and the claims, the question under 35
`
`U.S.C. §103 is not whether the differences themselves would have been obvious, but whether the
`
`claimed invention as a whole would have been obvious. § MPEP 2141.02; Stratoflex, Inc. y.
`
`Aeroquip Corp., 713 F.2d 1530, 218 USPQ 871 (Fed. Cir. 1983). Additionally, an obviousness
`
`rejection cannot be based on a reference or combination of references that are non-analogous to
`
`the invention at issue. MPEP § 2141.01(a).
