Xerox Loses Step in Battle Over 3Com Palm, Rochester Paper Says

Rochester, New York, Jan. 23 (Bloomberg) -- Xerox Corp., the world's
largest copier company, lost a round in its battle against 3Com Corp.
over software for the No. 2 networking company's handheld Palm computer,
the Rochester Democrat & Chronicle reported in its digital edition. The
U.S. Patent and Trademark Office said 3Com had cited enough earlier
examples of similar technology that the Xerox patent should be re-examined,
3Com said. Xerox previously had sued U.S. Robotics, now owned by 3Com,
saying the Palm technology violated Xerox's Unistrokes handwriting
recognition software, the paper said.

Earlier this month, Hewlett-Packard Co., the No. 1 inkjet printer maker,
settled its lawsuit against Xerox that claimed the company violated H-P
trademarks on toner-cartridge packaging.
