          Application No. 09/286,760                                                  






          Since the teachings of Singhal do not render any of the                     
          independent claims obvious, they also fail to teach the                     
          obviousness of any of the dependent claims as well.  Accordingly,           
          the decision of the examiner rejecting claims 1-21 is reversed.             


          REVERSED
