          Appeall No. 1998-1398                                     Page 30           
          Application No. 08/400,637                                                  


          between the calling party and a telephone landline when the                 
          cellular cordless telephone is located in a cellular telephone              
          system.  Because the Gillig references fail to disclose                     
          terminating a path of a three way call, we are not persuaded                
          that the teachings from the prior art would appear to have                  
          suggested the limitations of "automatically terminating a path              
          of the three way call between the telephone device having the               
          telephone number and the cellular cordless telephone having                 
          the cellular telephone number when the cellular cordless                    
          telephone is located in the cordless telephone system" and                  
          "automatically terminating a path of the three way call                     
          between the telephone device having the telephone phone number              
          and the telephone landline having the landline telephone                    
          number when the cellular cordless telephone is located in the               
          cellular telephone system."  Therefore, we reverse the                      
          rejection of claim 28 as obvious over Gillig ‘230,                          
          Gillig ‘042, Gillig ‘558, or Gillig ‘674.                                   


               We end by noting that our affirmances are based only on                
          the arguments made in the brief.  Arguments not made therein                
          are neither before us nor at issue but are considered waived.
