Case in point, 11/522,000 for EDIG...the encryptiopn/security application.
RCE filed 10-7-10 and not a word since from the USPTO.
DRVEN & I brought this up during the 2/21 visit.
In simple terms, there is no time table requirement on their end, so EDIG can do nothing about it.
Said another way, the RCE sits at the bottom of the examiners inbox.
The good news is, IMO, the financial value of this application is minimal compared to Flash-R & NUNCHI.
