IANAL.

The second one looks more like some sort of ad-hoc network that's generated and used for transactions of some sort. I could imagine a bit-coin app that creates an ad-hoc network between two phones and transfers funds in the ad-hoc network. That's my read of the patent. Am I way off here? And, does Angry Birds really violate that? We very much need a lawyer here to expound upon this.

OMG. I just realized it's probably the feedback in the Android Market. That's why the second part talks about sales. It's not even part of their app!
