Application 09/545,174
in the data is an incomplete view of the claimed requirements.
The information sent back to the host computer 200 from the
decoder/biller 300 does not access again the storage medium 100
in Figures 1 and 2 to derive any corresponding creator contact
data therefrom in the manner required by the claims on appeal.
In fact, the storage medium 100 is not again accessed by the host
computer 200 once it has received the decrypted information from
the decoder/biller 300.
Again, it is emphasized that the independent claims on
appeal require that the creator contact data corresponding to one
of a plurality of creator identifiers must be obtained from the
first memory. The resulting combination of Shear in view of
Powell does not teach this feature. As noted earlier, we thus
conclude that the subject matter of the independent claims on
appeal would not have resulted from the combination of teachings
and suggestions of Shear in view of Powell.
In view of the foregoing, since we are persuaded by at least
some of the arguments presented by appellant in the Request for
Rehearing, our decision originally set forth in our prior opinion
