           Appeal No. 2006-2754                                                                      
           Application No. 10/108,109                                                                
           deficiencies as noted in the discussion of representative claim 8                         
           above.  It is therefore our view, after consideration of the                              
           record before us, that the evidence relied upon and the level of                          
           skill in the particular art would not have suggested to the                               
           ordinarily skilled artisan the invention as set forth in claims 1                         
           through 7, 9, 10, 12 through 15.  Accordingly, we will not                                
           sustain the Examiner’s rejection of claims 1 through 7, 9, 10, 12                         
           through 15.                                                                               
                                               CONCLUSION                                            
                 In view of the foregoing discussion, we have not sustained                          
           the Examiner’s decision rejecting claims 8 and 11 under 35 U.S.C.                         
           § 102. We have also not sustained the Examiner’s decision                                 
           rejecting claims 1 through 7, 9, 10, 12 through 15 under                                  
           35 U.S.C. § 103.  Therefore, we reverse.                                                  









                                                REVERSED                                             

                                                 15
