THE REJECTION
Claims 1-5, 12 and 13 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C.
§ 103 as being unpatentable over the combined teachings of
Farooq, Delfino and Breton.
OPINION
We have carefully considered all of the arguments
advanced by appellant and the examiner and agree with
appellant that the aforementioned rejection is not well
founded. Accordingly, we reverse this rejection. We need to
address only claim 1, which is appellant’s sole independent
claim.
