           Appeal No. 2006-1845                                                                      
           Application No. 10/350,875                                                                

           interior space.  That feature is disclosed by Letner (figure 2).                          
                 We therefore are not convinced of reversible error in the                           
           examiner’s rejection over the combined disclosures of Letner and                          
           ACSI.                                                                                     
                                             DECISION                                                
                 The rejection of claims 1-6, 8 and 9 under                                          
           35 U.S.C. § 102(a) over ASCI is reversed.  The rejection of                               
           claims 1-6, 8 and 9 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 over Letner in view of                          
           ASCI is affirmed.                                                                         



















                                                 6
