WebXCope mobile Web proxy

WebXCopy is another Skweezer-like free proxy tool to strip away non-essential HTML code from regular Web pages, to make the latter more pleasant to surf on mobile devices. On the downside, Jenner Research, the company behind WebXCopy, claims to have filed a patent on the "implifying, splitting, and scaling operations against desktop oriented web content to fit in client devices." I don't see how anyone could patent such an obvious use of widely available technology.
