You'd have to search for it, but from what I have heard the Blackberry technology was ripped off. In 2003 there was some form of settlement, but now there is talk of a new case. If the patent owner does not settle, it could be interesting. I think this makes the Treo and easier choice.

That's what I heard too, but won't a ruling against them in a law suit only affect corporations who have all of their employees connected through some fancy Blackberry Enterprise server at work? Would a solitary end user like myself be affected too?

I tried to find this answer, but couldn't. Odds are that eventually this thing settles and nothing happens...
