What is the difference with Neo and Scan patents? why would the Ustpo grant patents to both parties utilizing the same tech? I have been doing my own research and it seems the patents basically do the same thing! Decode, Direct etc. etc...Why is Scan such a threat to us, if we own the indirect method?

Well, their wording claims "Granted" patents..which would exclude pending ones..

blah blah "over 30 patents granted covering the entire solution" more blah blah blah

Are these patents known as prior art and been considered irrelevant?

This is is the first time I see Scanbuy been granted a patent that involves decoding a barcode and communicating with a server. Any threat from this?

Patent No. 7287696 and No. 7156311 – A system and method for decoding and analyzing barcodes using a mobile device, and communicating with a server to deliver media content back to the device
