`
`COMMENTS ON STATEMENT OF REASONS FOR ALLOVVANCE
`
`Applicant thanks Examiner Liu for the thorough examination and for recognizing the
`
`allowability of the subject matter of the claims. Applicant respectfully submits that
`
`the
`
`characterization of the invention of the claims in the Examiner’s Statements for Reasons for
`
`Allowance in the Notices of Allowance mailed January 6, 2010 and April 16, 2010 may not take
`
`into account the entirety of the features of the invention reflected in the claims, the specification,
`
`and the prosecution history of the application. To that end, Applicant points out that the claims,
`
`specification, and prosecution history in their entirety provide an adequate basis for allowability.
`
`Applicant also notes that there may be additional reasons for allowance that have not
`
`been specifically stated. Applicant respectfully submits that, notwithstanding the Examiner’s
`
`Statements of Reasons for Allowance, each of the allowed claims is patentable in its own right,
`
`for other reasons raised during prosecution and/or explained in the application.
`
`To the extent that specific parts of the examiner’s statement of reasons for allowance may
`
`pertain to features appearing in some but not all claims, Applicant respectfully submits that the
`
`Examiner has thoroughly examined the claims,
`
`recognized the features appearing or not
`
`appearing in each of the claims, and properly found each of the claims to be allowable. To the
`
`extent that the Examiner has paraphrased claim features, Applicant respectfully submits that the
`
`claims have been construed in View of their language in light of the specification and not limited
`
`by any of the Examiner’s statements or by the recitation therein of any specific claim features.
`
`6
`
`

`
`Further,
`
`the statement of reasons for allowance includes statements regarding the
`
`disclosure of certain pieces of art. While Applicant does not necessarily agree with these
`
`characterizations of What
`
`is disclosed by the art, Applicant agrees with Examiner that the
`
`application is allowable over the disclosure of the cited art.
