I'm about 20% of the way through an edition of day 8, with reflowed text in
mixed case, but retaining pagination.

My favourite quote so far:
THE COURT: Okay. I want to see papers. Give me papers. I don't trust what
any lawyers tells me in this courtroom. I want to see the actual papers.

Aargh!

This from Dr Yang's testimony, day 8 page 82:

The '893 patent has to do with a digital camera or perhaps a camera phone with the idea that now you can take lots and lots of pictures but now you can store lots and lots of pictures. So if you store lots of these pictures and you have thousands and maybe in different albums and you're looking at them, because that's part of the beauty of having digital camera, you have it in place and you're looking at a picture and if you go to do another function or you look at another picture, and you go back, you've completely lost your place. And you have to scroll through or somehow find your way through all of that, among the pictures among the thousands that you might have stored on your digital camera. The idea here was let's have a bookmark or index and keep track of where that is. That's the invention of the '893. [emphasis added]

Did I totally lose the plot, or do I correctly remember that ideas should not be granted a patent?

Also, is this not just a teensy bit obvious, as evidenced by the fact that they've called it after a device well known to almost the entire world, viz., a BOOK MARK?
