   "We weren't able to determine how the implementation is being done," admitted Vanstone, "so all we can determine is that they're using concepts that we have coverage on, solid coverage on."

   
   
   I think what he really means is that REGARDLESS of how the implemenation is being done by Sony, he strongly believes that Sony is implementing it in a way that is patented because Certicom almost patents all ECC implementations.

   This article is misleading, especially the quote from Vanstone. Certicom doesn't really patent the concept of ECC. In fact, it patents certain, and most, implementations of ECC, thus leading him to believe that Sony has infringed upon their concept. Because regardless of how Sony implements ECC, it infringes upon one of the implementations of ECC, i.e. the whole conecpt of ECC. I hope I can say it clearer.
