          Appeal No. 2001-0654                                                        
          Application 08/910,315                                                      


          Emery, we fail to find any support for the Examiner’s assertion             
          that Emery teaches personal identity information as required by             
          claims 1 through 8.                                                         
               The Examiner has further rejected claim 3 under 35 U.S.C.              
          § 103 as being obvious over Hillis in view of Emery and further             
          in view of Wizgall.  The Examiner relies on Wizgall for the                 
          teaching of a detachable mass memory card.  See page 5 of the               
          Examiner’s answer.  We note that the Examiner for this rejection            
          also relies on Emery for the teaching of personal identity                  
          information unique to a person using the transmitter and                    
          exclusive of any transmitter identifying number and exclusive of            
          the transmitter’s location as required by claim 3 due to its                
          dependence on claim 1.  We therefore will not sustain the                   
          rejection of claim 3 for the same reasons as above.
