In terms of the 815 patent - what DRM, or more broadly encryption decryption schemes were used? If they match (non-legal term) the patent, then the patent challenge may be nonenforceable due to prior art, otherwise, Psion is probably irrelevant. I don't have an opinion here, I am only trying to understand your reasoning process. E.G. - Psion existed - so what?
