Settlement ends Blackberry case

Just in case you haven't heard or read by now: Settlement ends Blackberry case (from BBC News)

The maker of the Blackberry e-mail device has reached a $612.5m (£349m) settlement to end a dispute that could have closed the service in the US.

Looks like the reports of the Crackberry's death were greatly exaggerated.

Kinda interesting to watch the stocks of competitors go down upon the announcement. Palm stock fell like 7%, which begs the question: Is Palm really so bad that it requires another company's downfall in order to succeed? Here are some interesting Palm-related articles posted after the RIM announcement:
