I haven't actually read the patents, but from the overview I would guess that they are completely obvious solutions that patents should never have been granted for.
The funny thing about all of these types of things is that they always mention storing or exchanging data with a central computer. There seems to have been a raft of really bad (and I mean really bad) patents issued for every type of little number or data bit that can be stored on a computer.

Yeah, computers store data. No, you're not a genius for thinking of yet another little thing to put in your computer.
