             Application Number: 10/033,151                                                                    

                Accordingly we sustain the examiner's rejection of claims 1 through 3, 5                       
             through 7, 9 through 12, 14 through 21, 23, 25 and 26 under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) as                 
             obvious over Filler and Yu.                                                                       
              Claim 4 rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) as obvious over Filler, Yu and Beuk.                   
                The appellants argue that claim 4 is patentable for the same reasons as claim 1                
             (Br. 13), and we find this unpersuasive for the reasons we recited, supra.

                The appellants argue that claim 13 is patentable for the same reasons as claim 1               
             (Br. 13), and we find this unpersuasive for the reasons we recited, supra.                        
             Accordingly we sustain the examiner's rejection of claim 13 under                                 
             35 U.S.C. § 103(a) as obvious over Filler, Yu and Peppel.                                         
             Claims 8 and 24 rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) as obvious over Filler, Yu and                  
                                                    Treyz.                                                     
                The appellants argue that claims 8 and 24 are patentable for the same reasons                  
             as claims 1 and 21 (Br. 13), and we find this unpersuasive for the reasons we                     
             recited, supra.  Accordingly we sustain the examiner's rejection of claims 8 and 24               
             under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) as obvious over Filler, Yu and Treyz.
