Publication number: 20070039477Abstract: An in-vehicle coffee maker includes a coffee mug and a brewing station that receives the mug, and has a lid that secures the mug therein. A pump supplies water to the lid from a water reservoir via a water line. A heating element heats the water to a predetermined temperature. The mug includes a mug portion, a drink cap, and a pod retainer. The drink cap includes a pod chamber to hold coffee grounds, and the pod retainer secures the coffee grounds therein. The pod retainer includes a opening for water to pass through, into the pod chamber, which in turn includes an opening for water to drain downward into the mug. The lid of the brewing station includes a nozzle that forms a sealed engagement with the opening in the pod retainer so water supplied from the reservoir to the lid flows into the pod chamber.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 18, 2005Publication date: February 22, 2007Inventors: Upton Bowden, Jeffery Conley, Kurt Nuler, Michael Haen, Richard Vaughan

Publication number: 20050066018Abstract: A method, apparatus, computer program product, and computer system for ensuring consistency between data displayed by multiple independent client programs that can simultaneously display server-provided data. The data are accessible only from a server that is not persistently connected to the client computer system(s) displaying the data, so the client programs cannot retrieve the data independently without sending a request to the server. Client programs do not poll the server by sending a request to learn that data capable of being displayed by the multiple client programs have been updated. Instead, client programs are notified by the server program receiving the request to change the data at the time the request is received.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 29, 2003Publication date: March 24, 2005Inventors: Derrick Whittle, Vincent Sollicito, Edward Seitz, Brockton Davis, Stephen Owens, Richard Vaughan, James Bollas

Publication number: 20050050301Abstract: A method, apparatus, computer system and computer program product that enable a server to provide information and control the display of the information at a client dynamically without being persistently connected to the client. Functionality of the user interface can be changed without changing a client application displaying the information, installing a new application on the client computer system, or maintaining a persistent network connection between the client computer system and the server computer system. A control program running on the client computer system is configured to operate according to instructions provided by the server. The instructions provide information such as particular modules to present within the user interface and the layout of windows that provide access to the modules. The server also provides instructions for responses to be performed upon receiving events.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 29, 2003Publication date: March 3, 2005Inventors: Derrick Whittle, Vincent Sollicito, Edward Seitz, Brockton Davis, Stephen Owens, Richard Vaughan, James Bollas, Robert Gue, James Biddy, Michael Wolford, Steven Dowds

Patent number: 6029147Abstract: In association with a computer system, a method and system for providing an interface for establishing connections with financial institution to utilize on-line services. An application program sends a request to a branding server to look up information related to a particular financial institution. The branding server executes the request and, if the branding server contains information relating to the method of connection with identified financial institution, the branding server sends the information to the application program. The application program then loads an appropriate driver corresponding to the method of connection as determined by the branding server. If the method of connection is open financial connectivity (OFC), then the application loads a flexible driver (the OFC driver) which causes the application program to request the business rules of the particular financial institution from the financial institution's server.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 1997Date of Patent: February 22, 2000Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Peter H. Horadan, Richard A. Vaughan, Vivian Sewelson, Timothy J. Johnstone
