>>Gemstar has intellectual property in the area of time-sensitive discounts applied to smart cards upon the viewing of an advertisement.<< WOW, when I come up with ideas off the top of my head, they are typically a little radical and premature for the main stream. When I mentioned the "instant rebate coupon" as a means of potentially compensating customers, I assumed this was along these lines. To think that GMST has already PATENTED this concept is the most compelling case I've heard yet just how forward thinking the company really is. Thanks for mentioning this fact to me. I've looked for a website for GMST, and have not come up with much. I hear the company is a little discouraged my this fact, have you heard any news on when a site might be up? Also, for purposes of research, have you found any good sites to review the company's patents in summary fashion? Is it just a matter of wading through the 10-K's? Enjoy the weekend all :o) Regards, JB
