Comment on RIM sues Kik for patent infringement

Comments

How else would you expect RIM to react to a product that infringes on one its core features? It's been pushing BBM heavily in its marketing campaigns, and can't afford to have that exclusivity taken away.

Doesn't seem evil to me.

By outdoing them in features, performance, installed userbase. You know, competing.

So should Apple drop all the lawsuits it has pending against other companies so it can focus more on competing?

What I'm saying is that it doesn't seem unreasonable, as others are making it out to be, for RIM to sue a company for making a product that's nearly identical to its own.
