yes there is ...sorry about that, why no one posted this I have no idea...I thought what sman posted was a response to ....not a meeting summery.

"Continuation of Description of the general nature of what was agreed to if an agreement was reached, or any other comments:

PO's attorneys argued that the base claims 1 and 19 the '774 patent, each recites the limitations: "control circuitry coupled to ... and other regulated components of the record/playback device", and "a power source coupled to the control circuitry for supplying electrical power to the device"; wherein, the control circuitry, see id., Fig. 1(21), comprises a microprocessor, see id., Fig. 2 (21), coupled to signals (61-63), MOSFETs (64-66), and charge pump (68), see id., Fig. 5 (61-63 and 68); whereas, Kimura, Sudoh, and Sharp, either alone or in combination, fail to teach said limitations.

PO's attorneys' arguments have been noted.

Examiner Tran pointed out that the claim language, the specification, and/or the '774 patent prosecution history provides no such a specific definitions for the claim terms: "control circuitry" and "other regulated components". Particularly, the meaning of the term "control circuitry" as noted above is not recited in the claims and/or included the specification; and the term "other regulated components" was reasonably read as discussed in the prior Office action mailed 09/20/2011.

USPTO Examiner is required to give the claims their broadest reasonable interpretation in light of the supporting disclosure; and limitations appearing in the specification but not recited in the claim should not be read into the claim. Therefore, said claim terms have been given their "plain meaning" as discussed in the prior Office action.

Examiner Tran contended that the rejections recited in the prior Office action mailed 09/20/2011 are maintained. Agreed that PO's declaration may be used to define its position and/or to clarify the issues.

Awaiting PO's formal response to the prior Office action for consideration."

"as noted above is not recited in the claims"

It's explained, detailed and mapped out through the figures and drawings.....how they are going to consolidate to what the examiner wants ......?

The claim recits the flow of activity....."a power source coupled to the control circuitry for supplying electrical power to the device"

Power source ------->to control circuitry--------->power to device

We wait yet again....
