Isn't this prior art

In the patent application US20070040653, it appears that patent US20060187055 "Containers including radio frequency shielding" might be prior art. Is this the case?

Answer 1

This patent application was declared abandoned in 2010. That information is visible at a USPTO site called Public PAIR. It allows the public to see all of the paperwork back-and-forth between the applicant and the examiner. I am inserting a screen shot of the status of this application.
