Appeal 2007-1881 Application 10/092,259 accommodate the software, and reporting the user that additional memory is needed. We have reviewed Mitchelmore, paying particular attention to the paragraphs cited by the Examiner, and the only teaching we found regarding memory appears in paragraph [0190]. Specifically, Mitchelmore discloses that the user may add components to provide personal configuration management which may enable the user to swap applications in and out of the handheld device to release limited storage resources. Although this paragraph suggests managing the memory of the handheld device, it falls short of teaching querying how much memory is available and reporting to the user that additional memory is needed. Also, we find no teaching of querying whether the operating system can accommodate the software. Therefore, we cannot sustain the anticipation rejection of claim 19. ORDER The decision of the Examiner rejecting claims 1 through 19 under 35 U.S.C. § 102(e) is reversed.
