                Appeal 2007-1410                                                                              
                Application 09/811,038                                                                        

                (FF 9).  However, Kalmanek does not teach that this assessment of adequate                    
                bandwidth occurs in response to the validation of a reservation request.                      
                      Because Appellants have shown that the Examiner has failed to                           
                establish a prima facie case of obviousness, we will not sustain the                          
                Examiner’s rejection of claims 8-23 under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a).                                 

                                         CONCLUSION OF LAW                                                    
                      We conclude that Appellants have shown the Examiner erred in                            
                rejecting claims 8-23.  On the record before us, claims 8-23 have not been                    
                shown to be unpatentable.                                                                     

                                                 DECISION                                                     
                      The Examiner’s rejection of claims 8-23 is reversed.                                    

                                                REVERSED
