Blackberry email faces blackout threat

A dispute over patents could lead to email being switched off to Blackberry PDA users in the US according to a report in the UK Sunday Times (29 Jan).

Research in Motion (RIM), the Canadian maker of Blackberry PDA, which has become an icon of 'mobile connectivity' with some 4 million users, has been in long-term dispute with NTP who claim to hold US patent rights to some of RIM’s technology. The two sides are locked in an increasingly heated battle and if an agreement cannot be reached, NTP is threatening to pull the plug on America’s Blackberry users which includes the elite of the private and public sectors.
