RIM and NTP headed back to court

BlackBerry 7100g

Sorta figured this one was over and done with, but it looks like RIM and NTP are headed back to court over that wireless email patent infringment lawsuit they settled back in March. You'd think RIM would be doing everything possible to find some way out of the settlement after the US Patent & Trademark Office invalidated one of the five patents that was the basis of NTP's suit (they agreed to pay NTP $450 million to license its patents while the two companies hammered out a final agreement), but they're the ones asking a court to enforce the terms of the settlement, accusing NTP of refusing to "honor its obligations."
