That sound unfeasible to me!
Can anyone tell me how they are going to produce feedback without moving parts?

does a speaker count as a moving part. Probably not and Id imagine you can put the correct frequency through it to resonate with the pad ?? It would probably sound like arse tho

Yes. The coil of a speaker generates an alternating electromagnetic field within a fixed magnetic field, causing the coil to move. You could work it the other way around by using a solenoid, which is a fixed magnet moving within an alternating electromagnetic field.
Both of these are different from the rumble found in most pads, however. The create rumble using rotating a motors with an off-centre weight attached.
I'm not sure how specific the Immersion patent is, but I though it was vague enough to cover any form of haptic feedback, regardless of the method of implementation.

Yeah, sounds hokey.
Maybe they use contacts on the pad to give you a mild electric shock to simulate vibration
:)
