services." (Col. 1, ll. 14-18.) "The use of the secure token device enables ISPs to tailor
their service offerings and billing options to individual users. The users may be offered
different service options." (Col. 4, ll. 42-44.)
Because Jaalinoja teaches ordering an electronic token that allows a wireless
terminals access to an external network or access to local services, or DiGiorgio
teaches ordering ISP-provided services for a user's "PDA, a personal computer (PC) or
a workstation," (col. 5, ll. 47-48), we find that teachings from the prior art itself would
have suggested ordering a service for an electronic device.
B. BASING PROVISIONING ON ANSWERS
The examiner finds that Jaalinoja teaches the following features:
• prompting said user to answer a plurality of questions [paragraph
0021i.e. WAP service is inherent];
• generating corresponding provisioning information for said network
communication device within said electronic device based on
answers given by said user in response to said plurality of
questions [paragraphs 0021-24 i.e. generating a token according to
the received token request or to the WAP service][.]
(Examiner's Answer at 4-5.) The appellants argue, "Paragraphs 0021-0024 of
Jaalinoja may provide the generation of a token according to a token request but
certainly not based on answers given by a user in response to a series of questions
during the order placement of the electronic device." (App. Br. at 5.)
