Appeal No. 2002-0574
Application No. 09/144,949
claims 1, 2 and 41 through 6 is sustained.
The obviousness rejection of claim 3 is reversed because the
combined teachings of the references neither teach nor would have
suggested to one of ordinary skill in the art “to display the
unit price information in a unit price portion and in a total
price portion of a display within the electronic price label.”
The only disclosure of such a teaching is appellants’ disclosed
and claimed invention, and such a teaching is not available to
the examiner in an obviousness determination.
1 The claimed first configuration option is met by the
modified teachings of Sundelin and O’Connor. Nothing in this
claim requires that both configuration options have to be met by
the combined teachings of the references.
