Negative. At least not yet[1]. The patent does not expire until at least June 2003. Looking at my calendar watch I see it is only March. And there may be other submarine patents in the portfolio which will only be published once this one is expired. Patience. Bob [1] http://www.delphion.com/details?&pn=US04558302__
