          Appeal No. 1998-2986                                                        
          Application No. 08/344,390                                                  


          same phone.  The only rationale we can find is in appellants'               
          specification.  Therefore, the examiner has failed to                       
          establish a prima facie case of obviousness.  Accordingly, we               
          cannot sustain the rejection of claim 13.  Further, since all               
          of the remaining claims include limitations similar to the                  
          ones we have found lacking from the combination of Cooper and               
          Teare, we likewise cannot sustain the rejection of claims 1                 
          through 12 and 14 through 20.
