                 Application No. 2006-0292                                                                               

                                                    CONCLUSION                                                           
                        Because we conclude that the references as combined do not provide a                             
                 prima facie case of obviousness under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a), the rejection of claim                        
                 6, the only claim on appeal, is reversed.
