Appeal 2007-2701 Application 10/079,811 independent claims 1, 15, and 16 as being unpatentable over Hollander in view of Platt. Because we have reversed the Examiner’s rejection of each independent claim, we will not sustain the Examiner’s rejection of any dependent claims under appeal. Therefore, we also reverse the Examiner’s rejection of dependent claims 2, 6-12, and 14 as being unpatentable over Hollander in view of Platt. Likewise, we reverse the Examiner’s rejection of dependent claims 3-5 as being unpatentable over Hollander in view of Platt and Campbell, and we reverse the Examiner’s rejection of dependent claim 13 as being unpatentable over Hollander in view of Platt and Harmon. DECISION In summary, we will not sustain the Examiner’s rejection of any claims under appeal. Therefore, the decision of the Examiner rejecting claims 1-16 is reversed.
