              Appeal No. 2006-1346                                                                 Παγε 6                                       
              Application No. 09/845,542                                                                                                        


              sustain the examiner's rejection of claim 5 because the appellants have made similar                                              
              arguments with respect to this claim.                                                                                             
                     In regard to claim 3, the appellants argue that Sherr does not disclose a web                                              
              page overlay that includes a shopping summary.                                                                                    
                     We agree with the examiner that Sherr suggests the subject matter of claim 3 by                                            
              disclosing that a streaming box 206 can be used to display additional information to the                                          
              user, such as a page to purchase the content [0066].  Therefore, we will sustain the                                              
              examiner's rejection of claim 3.  We will sustain the examiner's rejection of claim 6 for                                         
              the same reasons.                                                                                                                 
                     In regard to claims 7, 8, and 9, appellants argue that the prior art does not                                              
              disclose or suggest displaying a bidding summary.  We will sustain this rejection                                                 
              because as we stated above the exact information displayed in response to the                                                     
              detection of a right click does not patentably distinguish the claimed subject matter.  In                                        
              addition, as Sherr discloses displaying an order page with a list or summary of items                                             
              purchased, a person of ordinary skill in the art would have been motivated to display                                             
              any type of summary desired.                                                                                                      
                     In regard to claim 10, the appellants argue that there is no disclosure of deriving                                        
              a screen location from screen coordinates of a computer mouse.
