Stock is halted....While I'm sure, Rimm service as we know it will survive the storm, I think this will be the beginning of lower prices...how is it that tmobile is able to charge 19.99 for unlimited blackberry...but everywhere else, the starting point is 45??

Whats does one have to do with other?

I see this as primarily a money issue. Once the liability is lifted I am looking for a takeover of RIM.

Try using a T-Mobile once. You will find it won't work in a lot of places. Sure you get reception on interstates and in most metropolitan areas. But not much else. Of course mileage may vary. I too was seduced by the lower prices, but way pay 50% to only have the blackberry work 40% of the time. I could never get a signal at my house (I live in the suburbs) or at work (giant concrete bomb-shelter type building. And pretty much entering any build would cause me to loose signal, unless I was standing near a window. Every other carrier works just fine, so what gives?

Wow, this is crazy. I can't believe that the judge is ignoring the patent office. Absolutely rediculous.

I would buy RIM stock, I'm sure it will go back up soon. Their stock is down 5% as we speak.

how is this breaking news??? Been known for 3 years....

We have enough threads on this already - there had been an excessive surge of redundant threads on this, so I will close this one.

All parties, please post news, comments, rebuttals in this thread.
