USPTO Panel Says Amazon’s One-Click Patent Isn’t Obvious

Filed under: Uncategorized — billgatesretirement @ 9:11 am

Additionally Due to the diligent work of a few determined individuals, the US Patent Office (once again) began to look into Amazon’s infamous “one-click” patent. New prior art was demonstrated, and in an initial re-examination, the examiner rejected some of the claims in the patents, noting that they appeared to be obvious. Of course, patent appeals processes are long and involved, and after Amazon presented their side to a 3-judge panel, that panel has now ruled that the examiner did not do enough to show why the patent claims were obvious, suggesting that what many of us (including those who are skilled practitioners in the space) think of as obvious, won’t be considered obvious. It sort of makes you wonder what it takes for the Patent Office to consider something obvious. Obviously, “obvious” has a different meaning to the US Patent Office than to most of us.
