          Application No. 08/727,730                                                  

               The obviousness rejection of claims 8 through 13 and 41 is             
          reversed because the transcoder teachings of Goodman do not                 
          provide for the deficient teachings of Pohjakallio, Yang and                
          Glaser.                                                                     
                                      DECISION                                        
               The decision of the examiner rejecting claims 1 through 3,             
          8 through 18, 20 through 25, 31 through 33 and 36 through 43                
          under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) is reversed.
