A federal judge last week dismissed a patent-infringement suit filed by E-Pass Technologies against Microsoft and Hewlett-Packard over certain mobile technologies. The suit, filed in February 2002, charged that Microsoft and HP infringed on E-Pass' patent describing a particular method for storing and information from various individual credit cards in a single electronic multi-function card. The company sued, accusing Microsoft Windows Mobile and HP mobile devices infringed on the patent.
