Blackberry case finally settled
As seen on MSNBC, a settlement has been reached in the NTP vs RIM case. The settlement was reached for a cool 612.5 million dollars.
“RIM has paid NTP $612.5 million in a “full and final settlement of all claims,” the companies said.”
“full and final settlement of all claims”. Lets hope that means no more future claims as well, that may be pocket change to a company as big as RIM, but for a few patent infringements that is still a nice chunck of money. And as I remember it, the original settlement figure NTP asked for before all this mess was in the range of 150 Million if I recall correctly.
