`
`’970 Patent: “status data” (Claim 2)
`2. A communication system for transmitting, receiving, confirming receipt, and responding to an electronic message,
`comprising:
`a predetermined network of participants, wherein each participant has a similarly equipped PDA/cell phone that
`includes a CPU and a touch screen display a CPU and memory;
`
`∗∗∗
`
`to said recipient PDA/cell phones that have not
`
`means for periodically resending said forced message alert
`automatically acknowledged the forced message alert; and
`means for receiving and displaying a listing of which recipient PDA/cell phones have transmitted a manual response to
`said forced message alert and details the response from each recipient PDA/cell phone that responded; and
`means for displaying a geographical map with georeferenced entities on the display of the sender PDA/cell phone;
`means for obtaining location and status data associated with the recipient PDA/cell phone; and
`means for presenting a recipient symbol on the geographical map corresponding to a correct geographical location of
`the recipient PDA/cell phone,
`wherein the forced message alert software application program on the recipient PDA/cell phone includes: means for
`transmitting the acknowledgment of receipt to said sender PDA/cell phone immediately upon receiving a forced
`message alert from the sender PDA/cell phone;
`means for controlling of the recipient PDA/cell phone upon transmitting said automatic acknowledgment and causing,
`in cases where the force message alert is a text message, the text message and a response list to be shown on the
`display of the recipient PDA/cell phone or causes, in cases where the forced message alert is a voice message, the
`voice message being periodically repeated by the speakers of the recipient PDA/cell phone while said response list
`is shown on the display; ….

`
`’970 Patent: “status data” (Claim 10)
`
`10. A method of receiving, acknowledging and responding to a forced message alert from a sender PDA/cell phone to a recipient
`PDA/cell phone, wherein the receipt, acknowledgment, and response to said forced message alert is forced by a forced message alert
`software application program, said method comprising the steps of:
`receiving an electronically transmitted electronic message;
`identifying said electronic message as a forced message alert, wherein said forced message alert comprises of a voice or text message
`and a forced message alert application software packet, which triggers the activation of the forced message alert software
`application program within the recipient PDA/cell phone;
`transmitting an automatic acknowledgment of receipt to the sender PDA/cell phone, which triggers the forced message alert software
`application program to take control of the recipient PDA/cell phone and show the content of the text message and a required
`response list on the display recipient PDA/cell phone or to repeat audibly the content of the voice message on the speakers of the
`recipient PDA/cell phone and show the required response list on the display recipient PDA/cell phone; and
`transmitting a selected required response from the response list in order to allow the message required response list to be cleared from
`the recipient's cell phone display, whether said selected response is a chosen option from the response list, causing the forced
`message alert software to release control of the recipient PDA/cell phone and stop showing the content of the text message and a
`response list on the display recipient PDA/cell phone and or stop repeating the content of the voice message on the speakers of the
`recipient PDA/cell phone;
`displaying the response received from the PDA cell phone that transmitted the response on the sender of the forced alert PDA/cell
`phone; and
`providing a list of the recipient PDA/cell phones have automatically acknowledged receipt of a forced alert message and their response
`to the forced alert message; and
`displaying a geographical map with georeferenced entities on the display of the sender PDA/cellphone;
`obtaining location and status data associated with the recipient PDA/cellphone; and
`presenting a recipient symbol on the geographical map corresponding to a correct geographical location of the recipient PDA/cellphone
`based on at least the location data.

`entirely subjective and user-defined. The

`
`AGIS’s expert does not provide a plain meaning of the
`term. Relies on examples in area 16c in FIG. 1a (R, T,
`GPS, and M).
`Examples are not illustrated in 16c and not described
`as “status data” as in 16a.
`AGIS admits the term is not limited to these examples.

`inform those skilled in the art about the scope of the invention with
`reasonable certainty.’”

`
`A Claim Is Indefinite Without Reasonable
`Certainty Which Reading Is Correct
`
`“TVnGO responds that the disputed terms cover both displaying an initial
`overlay and displaying IP material. But we are not persuaded that this
`suggestion clears up the uncertainty, as it could also be the case that one or
`the other of these options is right. Even if it may be possible to “ascribe some
`meaning” …more is required…. Here, a person of ordinary skill would
`encounter two claim phrases without an ordinary meaning in the art….And when
`attempting to glean their meaning from the patent’s use of ‘activates’ and
`‘activating,’ he or she would find that “the patents teach two different
`results”—…without reasonable certainty as to which reading is correct. The
`asserted … patent claims are therefore indefinite.”

`“Here, one of ordinary skill cannot determine with any reasonable certainty, for
`instance, whether or not the claims cover arrangements like the internal-card
`embodiment of Perkins and the internal-modem embodiments of Figures 2b–d.
`…[T]he intrinsic evidence leaves an ordinarily skilled artisan without
`reasonable certainty as to where the passive link ends and where the
`computer begins.
