Appeal No. 1998-0943 Application No. 08/300,500 computer; (iii) receiving from said input subsystem said positional data, providing a response to said user in acknowledgment of said positional data, and transmitting over said wireless communication link said positional data to said application program; and (iv) receiving over said wireless communication link from said application program data representing said image, and causing said graphical display subsystem to display said image on said graphical display. The Examiner’s Answer cites the following prior art: More et al. (More) 5,194,852 Mar. 16, 1993 McCain et al. (McCain) 5,309,351 May 03, 1994 Kannan et al. (Kannan) 5,423,045 Jun. 06, 1995 (Filed Apr. 15, 1992) Mark Weiser (Weiser), “The Computer for the 21st Century,” Scientific American, pages 94-104 (September 1991). Claims 1 and 6-11 stand finally rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 102(e) as being anticipated by McCain. Claims 4, 12, and 1 13 stand finally rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103. As evidence of obviousness, the Examiner offers McCain in view of More with respect to claims 4 and 12, and McCain in view of Kannan with respect to claim 13. 1Although the Examiner makes reference to the Weiser publication in the “Response to argument” portion of the Answer, the statement of the grounds of rejection relies on McCain alone. 3Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
