Patent applications are not published or divulged by the Patent Office until 
they are granted.
This is so that if an invention is unpatentable, the company may still 
preserve it as a trade secret.

You'll have to go on the previous patent mentioned, the press release, and 
instinct.

-Wayne Steele (IANAL)
