Looks like they might have filed a Request for Continued Examination on the US patent. The explanation of what this means is below:

Request for Continued Examination (RCE)
The second type of response to a final rejection that is considered fully responsive is a RCE. An RCE is a type of continuing application. The RCE allows the applicant to file a second application to keep the prosecution of the first parent application alive after it has received a final rejection. The RCE application stays with the same Examiner that was reviewing the parent application and keeps the same serial number, yet the final rejection of the first parent application is removed. RCE's can be thought of as simply paying an additional fee to buy another full examination of the application. A potential problem with RCE applications is that they stay with the same Examiner who will often repeat the same arguments without being receptive to new arguments.
Actually, not sure if we're allowed to talk about the patent... I was going to post this as an update on the original patent thread, but seems the entire thread was deleted in April "pending legal issues".
