Surely this is part of a plan to prove the inanity of software patents in order to have them all thrown out.
I mean... they can't be serious, can they?
If you ask a programmer to implement a "page down" function, they have to make a couple decisions that can lead to what... three possible sane outcomes? This is one of the outcomes.
* Am I talking screen page or document page?
* Do I leave a little bit of overlap for context?
* If there are multiple document pages on the screen, do I just go one or do I skip past all the ones that have already been displayed?
* If there are fractional document pages on the screen, do I skip past the undisplayed portion?
Document,No,Just one,N/A = patent.
I wonder if they covered the other 87.5% of the solution space in other filings.
