WSJ.com - RIM to Pay $450 Million To Settle Patent Suit: "Research In Motion Ltd., the Canadian maker of BlackBerry wireless e-mail devices, said Wednesday it will pay $450 million to resolve litigation with NTP Inc., a company that said the devices infringed on in its patents.
Wall Street responded positively to the news, sending shares of Research In Motion soaring 18% to $78.83 in early trading Wednesday on the Nasdaq Stock Market. The stock has rallied 30% since talk of possible settlement surfaced earlier this week.
...
... Research In Motion's cash and equivalents are about $1.73 billion, leaving the company with $1.28 billion following the settlement. This is "still a very substantial war chest by anyone's estimate," he said."
