Review: The problem is that RIM started another war last June.
American inventor of predictive text Howard Gutowitz, who owns a small company named Eatoni Ergonomics, tried to license his inventions to RIM. RIM responded with a lawsuit. This is a common tactic of deep-pocketed companies, which often is a ploy to bankrupt financially weaker inventors. Our organization PIAUSA.org has helped this inventor make contact with those who are in a position to stay the course until justice is achieved. http://www.eatoni.com/wiki/index.php/Litigation
Many years ago I observed that some CEO's act like teenage boys, big egos-- little thought before engaging those egos--short term gain orientation and marginally developed sense of ethics. RIM's conduct most certainly reinforces this observation.
