We note Appellants are not precluded from amending the claims toovercome the rejection. Relevant guidance is in the 1351 Off. Gaz. Pat.Office 212 (“A claim drawn to such a computer readable medium that covers both transitory and non-transitory embodiments may be amended to narrow the claim to cover only statutory embodiments to avoid a rejection under 35 U.S.C. § 101 by adding the limitation ‘non-transitory’ to the claim.”); USPTO, Evaluating Subject Matter Eligibility Under 35 U.S.C. § 101 (August 2012 Update) (pp. 11-14), available at http://www.uspto.gov/patents/law/exam/101_training_aug2012.pdf (noting that while “non-transitory” is a viable option for overcoming the presumption that the media encompass signals or carrier waves, merely indicating that such media are “physical” or “tangible” will not overcome such presumption) (emphasis added). See id. at 14.
