RADER, Circuit Judge.
Marek Kubin and Raymond Goodwin (“appellants”) appeal from a decision of the Board of Patent Appeals and Interferences (the “Board”) rejecting the claims of U.S. Patent Application Serial No. 09/667,859 (“'859 Application”) as obvious under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) and invalid under 35 U.S.C. § 112 ¶ 1 for lack of written description.
