Does Embarq™ Qualify to be Patented?
Yes. Patents are granted when a new invention has actually been created, and not just upon the idea or suggestion of the new invention. A complete description of the actual invention is required. And, it must be new1. Some of the patents that underlie Embarq™ have already been granted, and others are in the process. We are confident that all of them will eventually be granted, though we can provide you no assurance that they will be until they are.
