Subject: The Blackberry patent debacle is in the news again


Does anyone on the list know exactly what the patents are about?



I’m sure it’s worthy of a rant about the legal profession and their triumph over science and abstraction but it would be useful to know the specifics first. Still, I’m sure that it will be one more example of how far we’ve drifted from the goal of encouraging innovation to holding innovation hostage.
