Well , we ’re down to the terminal few hours before the RIM vs. NTP cat fight get all important . With 81 percent of businesses report that their Blackberries are priceless to make their thumb - typecast employee look like total cocksucker everywhere they go , this is big news . The issue now is whether the jurist forces an enjoining on RIM , thereby shut down their entire web , until they settle .
The wager are comparatively gamy , especially considering NTP is nothing more than a furuncle on the ass of patent of invention police . The company , which have patents — that ’s right , that ’s all they do — earlier wanted $ 1 billion . They ’ve decided to drop that title to about $ 450 million , enough to get the entire staff of NTP sex - reassignment surgery and a new Miata .
Although I ’ve never loved the Blackberry , this whole case reminds us that letters patent law is broken . NTP is making in question claim , RIM is throwing its weight around like a mini - Microsoft , and both parties are milking this for all the gratis publicity it ’s worth . Kinda makes me ill .
After the start … a poll parrot .
