Appeal 2006-2948 Application 10/194,872 The Reply Brief was not in the appeal file when we considered the appeal and issued our decision. Accordingly, we have reconsidered our decision anew in light of the arguments presented in the Reply Brief. Having done so, we remain of the opinion that the Examiner’s rejection is well founded and in accord with current patent jurisprudence. Consequently, we make no change in our original decision to affirm the Examiner’s Rejection. No time period for taking any subsequent action in connection with this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR § 1.136(a)(1)(iv) (2004). AFFIRMED APJ Initials: clj Todd T.
