SAN DIEGO, CA, Sep 25, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- e.Digital Corporation
(OTCQB: EDIG), a long standing source of innovation and future-defining patented
technologies, today reported that the United States Patent and Trademark Office
(USPTO) has accepted its supplemental declaration filed in response to an
earlier rejection by the USPTO of one claim in the Company's patent US
5,742,737. "We are very pleased with the USPTO's decision to admit our
supplemental declaration thereby allowing the original claim without substantive
modification," said Fred Falk, president and CEO of e.Digital Corporation.

"This concludes the reexamination of the '737 patent, and along with previous
modifications to our '774 patent announced in May 2012, concludes all open
reexamination matters," added Falk. "Overall we believe the reexam process has
strengthened and reaffirmed important patent claims allowing us to aggressively
move forward with Flash-R patent portfolio monetization activities."
