             7.     The claims of the parties which do not correspond to Count 1, and therefore are not

                    Count 1 defines a hand-held device for entering information into an electronic system.            
             As shown above, Count 1 contains at least six different requirements [1] through [6].                    
             Specifically, Count 1 is directed to [1] Aa hand-held device” for [2] “entering information into an      
             electronic system via a keyboard@.  Count 1 specifies that the device has [3] a housing with a           
             grippable portion that allows the device to be held in one hand where the thumb is free to move          
             to key-actuation positions.  At the key actuation position there is [4] a concavity having [5] a
