Rather silly when if you remove the word wireless from the patent and read it thru.<p>All phones have wires in them, thats how there low-level transport layer work. Is a wire perfectly dense or are there gaps at the sub atomic level which the electrons flow.<p>If you think of a old sailboat battleship as a device and semiphore as the wireless transport layer then you could equaly apply this to Nelsons times.<p>Also thought configuration of a phone was done via the GSM and even the CDMA standards in that the registeration process to the network and control SMS do that. WHat came first, hmmmm.<p>1) patent should never of been approved upon common sence of the time and mearly add's nothing.
2) charge per use is just plain old silly
3) chewbacca defence used at all on the jury?<p>makes you wonder: get all patents add word wireless as a adjective and patent as something new. Wait a bit, then profit. Crazy
