:: Blackberry patent woes (again) ::
As founder of the Blackberry Users Club on Ecademy in the UK, I am keeping my eye on Blackberry related stories.
From the BBC
"A Washington court looks into who should hold the US patent for the Blackberry, the mobile e-mail gizmo and boardroom status symbol. "
This is a topic that doesn't really affect us as end users, but has significance for those interested in developing wireless email solutions. RIM has long had significant patents on their "single mailbox" concept for the Blackberry. Their technical approach is rather difficult to avoid if anyone wishes to implement a similar solution for pushing mail to the device and for making actions on the device be reflected back on the desktop (e.g. Exchange client etc.)
