This carp has been going on ever since the patent office started handing out patents for "press a button" procedures - eveny ones that are already in fairly common use at the time of the application. Get there first, then sue the pants off everybody else.
It's like Apple trying to trademark the letter "i" so nobody else can market a device like the iBooger.
