Appeal No. 2006-1003
Application 10/046,535
THE REJECTIONS
The claims stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as follows:
claims 1, 4 and 6-8 over Segraves in view of Lin; claim 2 over
Segraves in view of Lin and either Anton or Litjen; claims 1, 2,
4 and 6-8 over Anton in view of Lin; claims 1, 4 and 6-8 over Lin
in view of Hoyt and Segraves; and claim 2 over Lin in view of
Hoyt, Segraves and either Anton or Litjen.
OPINION
We reverse the rejection of claims 1, 4 and 6-8 over
Segraves in view of Lin, and affirm the other rejections.
The appellants argue only the independent claim, i.e.,
claim 1 (brief, pages 4-9). Although additional references are
applied in two rejections of claim 2, the appellants do not
separately argue the patentability of that claim. We therefore
limit our discussion to claim 1. See 37 CFR 41.37(c)(1)(vii)
(2004).
