                                           Decided: November 3, 2006

                 Before PAK, TIMM, and JEFFREY T. SMITH, Administrative Patent                                        
                 Judges.                                                                                              
                 TIMM, Administrative Patent Judge.                                                                   

                                 ORDER REMANDING TO THE EXAMINER                                                      
                        A review of the record presently before us leads us to conclude that                          
                 this case is not in condition for a decision on appeal.  Accordingly, we                             
                 remand the application to the Examiner, via the Office of a Director of the                          
                 involved Technology Center, to consider the following issues and to take                             
                 action not inconsistent with the views expressed herein.
