My friend, who's a computer programer, said Mac is suing BB for use of th OS software that BB runs on.Anyone know anything else about this or if this is still going on or been resolved?...Hmmm...wonder what this means for BB's internal design if it's the case?...

I7 your behind me. no cut, no butts, no coconuts

really though, what do you think the outcome would be?

~via BB (wap.pinstack.com)~is it possible to sue for being sued so many times. RIM should start counter sueing these companies.

lets just remember... at this point its JUST A RUMOR. I did a quick search and could not find any reference to this on the web. If it were true, there would be plenty of press.

Suing for the use of the OS software that the BB runs on? Huh?

Am I the only person that doesn't understand that?

hey... i don't have any factual info. Just something I heard from a friend. If nothing's found on a 'net search then it's either "hush, hush..." or not true. N8- guess only explaination i could come up with is that RIM didn't have permission from MAC to use the OS... i dunno what's up with this tho. Just thought I'd post it to see if anyone knew?!

Don't know if its true but that would not be out of order for a company that charges 2000$ for a 500$ computer. Sorry mac fans but I've always hated mac/apple .
