THE WITNESS:
As I said before, apart
2
from this duality here of the Exhibit 4G
3
where there were two devices with different
4
colored casings and the replacement of some
5
of the devices for a variety of reasons,
6
those were the only devices that I considered
7
for the purposes of my infringement report.
8
Q.
So for a given product -- for a given
9
product, have you reviewed or considered more than
10
one Android version in formulating the infringement
11
opinions in your report on infringement of the '381
12
patent?
13
MR. MONACH:
Objection.
14
THE WITNESS:
Vague.
If you can restate that
15
question or maybe have the court reporter
16
read it back, if you don't mind, I want to
17
make sure I'm clear on the question.
18
MR. TUNG:
19
You can read back the
question.
20
21
Sure.
(Question read back.)
A.
So for a given product -- so, for example,
22
the Captivate or the Continuum, the device I
23
reviewed had the particular version of Android that
24
I have listed in this table in Exhibit 101 running
25
on it.
800-869-9132
And for that particular version of Android

running on that particular device I've determined
2
that the particular applications have the infringing
3
behavior.
4
What I've also determined is that additional
5
versions of Android by looking at the source code
6
and also the other versions of the phone would also
7
have similar behavior, infringing behavior.
8
I mean to say by that is if, for example, you have
9
the Captivate phone running Android version 2.2.1,
So what
10
given that Android version 2.2.1 running on the
11
Droid Charge, I have determined to be infringing the
12
'381 patent claim for some applications.
13
same version of Android was to run on a Captivate
14
phone, there is no reason why it would not infringe.
15
So that would also infringe.
16
17
Q.
If that
But you have not considered or examined a
Captivate phone running 2.2.1, correct?
18
MR. MONACH:
Object to the form of the
19
question as vague and compound.
20
and answered.
21
It was asked
You can do it again.
THE WITNESS:
I've not examined the
22
Captivate phone, per se, running 2.2.1, but I
23
have looked at 2.2.1 code that was produced.
24
If that 2.2.1 would run the Captivate, then
25
that would infringe as well.

Q.
How do you know that the 2.2.1 code running
on the Captivate would also infringe?
A.
Because the 2.2.1 code running on the Droid
4
Charge or the Epic 4G and some of the other devices
5
I have listed here clearly infringe.
6
running on another device, there's no reason why it
7
would be any different behavior if it's the exact
8
same code running on that device.
9
Q.
And code, if
So is it your testimony that the same code
10
running on different devices always operates the
11
same way?
12
MR. MONACH:
13
question.
14
Object to the form of the
Object as beyond the scope.
THE WITNESS:
For the particular
15
functionality we're talking about here, for
16
the bounceback functionality, that particular
17
functionality, that software-based
18
functionality, if it's running on another
19
device that had similar touch hardware
20
capability, in other words, which all these
21
phones and tablets do, as one skilled in the
22
art, I don't see any reason why it would not
23
behave the same way.
24
25
Q.
So have you ever observed two different
devices running the same version of Android and

exhibiting different behavior?
2
MR. MONACH:
3
hypothetical.
4
Objection.
Object.
THE WITNESS:
Incomplete
Beyond the scope.
I have not observed two
5
different devices running the exact same code
6
that exhibits different behavior.
7
Q.
My question is have you observed two
8
different devices running the same version of
9
Android exhibiting different behavior?
10
MR. MONACH:
11
THE WITNESS:
Same objections.
I might have, but I want
12
to make a distinction between what you call
13
the version of Android and what I'm saying is
14
the same source code.
15
somebody labels it a version of Android
16
doesn't mean somebody else couldn't have
17
changed it and putting in on a different
18
phone and calling it the same version of
19
Android.
20
distinction.
21
running on a different device with the same
22
capabilities as a device, that would
23
infringe.
24
25
Q.
So just because
I just wanted to draw that
If it's the exact same code
Do you know if Captivate running Android
version 2.2.1 code has the exact same code as, for

example, the Droid Charge running Android version
2
2.2.1?
3
MR. MONACH:
4
Object.
Beyond the scope
of the supplemental deposition.
5
THE WITNESS:
If 2.2.1 were running on
6
the Captivate, it would be the same code.
7
Why would it be different?
8
piece of code and put it on another machine,
9
it's the same code.
10
11
Q.
If I take one
But didn't you just testify that someone
could have changed the code?
12
A.
Then it's not the same code anymore.
13
Q.
So you haven't observed the Captivate running
14
the source code that you inspected for the Droid
15
Charge, correct?
16
17
18
19
20
A.
I have not seen the Captivate running 2.2.1,
per se, no.
Q.
But you are rendering an opinion on Captivate
running 2.2.1 Android version code?
A.
That's right.
If it ran 2.2.1, and it's the
21
same 2.2.1 that I've examined in the context that
22
was provided by Samsung for examination, and that I
23
have determined when running on the Droid Charge and
24
Epic 4G, for example, do infringe, if that same code
25
were to run on the Captivate, I don't see any reason
