I certainly understand why in the current climate you would feel that
obtaining a patent is necessary.  However, I'd seriously request that
you check out the arguments at http://progfree.org before committing
to that route.  Patents on software technologies hurt everyone; it's
just the wrong approach.  On top of that, the USPTO has historically
done an atrocious job of vetting software patents;  you run a high
risk of basing your business on a patent, spending millions in court
to defend it, and have it be invalidated in the end.
