I haven't fully reviewed the patents in question, but the oldest looks to have a filing date of sometime in late 2000. I would think that there has to be some prior art out there for many of the claims of this patent. For example, the sport of geocaching was founded in May 2000, and people pretty quickly started writing software applications to assist in finding caches.
- propercoil 14y agooh there is prior art. the military used GPS way before 2000
- pjscott 14y agoThe patents aren't on GPS; they're on obvious uses of GPS. (In both cases, the entire technical value of the patent could fit in a single Tweet.)
- enjo 14y agoThis is going to fail the test for triviality.
