         Appeal No.  2005-0178                                                      
         Application No. 10/091,502                                                 
         II.  The Other Rejection                                                   
              The other rejection before us in this appeal (the rejection           
         of claims 3, 4, 9, 10, 13, and 14 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being           
         obvious over Kuruma in view of Honbo, and further in view of               
         Nishimura), is also reversed because Nishimura does not cure the           
         aforementioned deficiencies of Kuruma in view of Honbo.                    
              Hence, for the same reasons, discussed supra, we reverse the          
         rejection of claims 3, 4, 9, 10, 13, and 14 under 35 U.S.C. § 103          
         as being obvious over Kuruma in view of Honbo, and further in              
         view of Nishimura.                                                         
         III.  Conclusion                                                           
              Each of the rejections is reversed.
