-
- We need some help in Japan.
-
- Toshiba has filed an application for a patent in Japan. The patent
- describes an electronic mail system capable of imbedding, delivering,
- and playing back sound files. We're trying to find publications
- which describe such a system and is out in the public domain. It
- must predate the Toshiba claim of April 24, 1981. This will allow
- Canon to file an official objection to the Toshiba application and
- prevent Toshiba from coming after NeXTMail in Japan. We are trying
- find something in the next week to ten days.
-
- Do you know of anything? Is there anyone who might know? Are there
- places we might go for this information?
-
-
- Please respond to james_higa@next.com.
