(“Irdeto”) appeals the decision of the United States District Court for the District of Colorado granting summary judgment of noninfringement to Echostar Satellite Corporation, and Kudelski, S.A. and Nagravision, S.A. (collectively, “Echostar”). Irdeto Access, Inc. v. Echostar Satellite Corp., Civil Action No. 98-M-1291 (D.Colo. Sept. 26, 2003) (“Summary Judgment Order”). Because we find no error in the district court’s claim construction, we affirm the summary judgment of noninfringement.
