Microsoft Corp. v. AT&T Corp., 550 U.S. 437 (2007), posed the question of whether a company can be liable for patent violation for a product, in this case software, used in another country. So the topic was not necessarily related to software and patentable subject matter, but there was room to discuss these topics, which SFLC did in their brief.

(Note: as far as I can tell, there was a 2006 CAFC en banc case, and a 2007 Supreme Court case, but I might confuse parts of the two)

The Supreme Court (AFAICT) ruled that no, the overseas infringement in that case didn't count as infringement in the USA.
