Research In Motion’s Co-CEO Jim Balsillie said Thursday that his company has a work around engineered and tested that will null and void the patent infringement claims by NTP. RIM has been in a years long legal battle with patent holding firm NTP over claimed patent infringement in RIM’s BlackBerry product line.
“Part of what we have done is a workaround. We’ve completed it. We’ve tested it and we have a legal opinion on it, so it’s an option… So the architecture of it, and I’ll give no more comments beyond this, works for all BlackBerries out there.”
