          Application 07/991,013                                                      


          cooperation with the electrical circuits of the apparatus or                
          communication device.                                                       
               Accordingly, we hold that the examiner has not                         
          established a prima facie case of obviousness of the instant                
          claimed subject matter and we will not sustain the rejection                
          of claims 1, 2, 11 and 12 under 35 U.S.C. 103.                              
               The examiner’s decision is reversed.
