              Appeal 2007-1651                                                                     
              Application 09/791,152                                                               
              Examiner has not found, nor do we find that Bright makes up for the                  
              deficiencies noted in the Examiner’s rejection of the independent claims.            
              Thus, we reverse the Examiner’s rejection of claims 3 through 5, 7, 14, 19           
              through 21, and 23, for the reasons discussed supra with respect to the              
              independent claims.                                                                  

                                          CONCLUSION                                               
                    We consider the Examiner’s rejections of claims 1 through 31 under             
              35 U.S.C. § 103(a) to be in error, as we do not find that the combination of         
              applied references teaches or would have suggested the limitations in                
              independent claims 1, 12, 16, 17, 28, 29, and 31.  On the record before us,          
              claims 1-31 have not been shown to be unpatentable.                                  
                                             ORDER                                                 
                    For the foregoing reasons, we will not sustain the Examiner’s                  
              rejections under 35 U.S.C. § 103.  The decision of the Examiner is reversed.         
                                           REVERSED
