                Appeal No. 2006-1128                                                                                                         
                Application No. 10/215,877                                                                                                   

                Claims 19-23                                                                                                                 
                We note that the appellants argue claims 19-23 as a group.  Accordingly, we select                                           
                claim 19 as representative of the group.  The appellants argue these claims the same                                         
                as they argued claims 13-18 and are therefore unpersuasive for the same reasons.                                             
                None of the appellants’ arguments are found persuasive.  Accordingly, we sustain the                                         
                examiner’s rejection of claims 19-23 as rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being                                              
                unpatentable as obvious over Caulfield in view of Lynn.                                                                      

                     We have above sustained the examiner’s rejections of claims 7-12, 13-18 and 19-                                         
                23. Accordingly, we sustain the examiner’s rejection of claims 7-23 as rejected under                                        
                35 U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable as obvious over Caulfield in view of Lynn.                                             
























                                                                     10
