          Appeal No. 96-3618                                                          
          Application 08/004,598                                                      

          connection with the TELCO.  The rejection of claim 47 is                    
          reversed.                                                                   

          20.  Claims 65, 68, 70, and 75:                                             
          § 103(a) over Gillig, Schellinger, and Emmert                               
               Claim 65 recites a "structure" corresponding to a                      
          cordless base station having a rechargeable battery.  The                   
          Examiner applies Emmert.  Emmert teaches a rechargeable                     
          battery in the handset 101, not in the cordless base station                
          as required by the claim.  Nevertheless, this limitation is                 
          not argued by Appellant.                                                    
               Claim 65 further recites "a first and second transceiver"              
          "the arrangement being further characterized by being                       
          functional, even if not being connected with said at least one              
          hardwired telephone line, to effectuate telephonic connection               
          between a portable cordless telephone instrument and a                      
          cellular telephone base station."  Schellinger does not                     
          suggest putting a cellular transceiver in the cordless base                 
          station that would communicate with a cellular telephone                    
          system and, therefore, does not suggest a non-hardwired                     
          connection with the TELCO.  Emmert does not cure this                       



                                       - 45 -
