Default RIM and NTP Settle For $612,500,000

http://money.cnn.com/2006/03/03/technology/rimm_ntp/index.htm?cnn=yes

"BlackBerry maker Research in Motion said Friday it agreed to pay $612.5 million to patent holding company NTP to settle a long-running dispute that had threatened to shut down the popular wireless e-mail service. Canadian-based Research in Motion (Research) announced the settlement late Friday ahead of a U.S. judge's expected ruling on damages in the case."

I wonder what the true cost to RIM has been, in lost/delayed business, attorney fees, etc. Oh well, It's over. Nothing else to see here. Move along. Move along folks...
