Forget watching 24, CSI Crime Scene or any other gripping drama on TV this winter. Just sit back and watch the case unfold between Microsoft and Sendo!
"Sendo's 27-page filing in a Texas court - disclosed here for the first time - is a rich litany of double dealing, betrayal and larceny - if the dramatic (and at times apoplectic) allegations can be believed.
"The claim alleges - are you ready to start counting? - misappropriation of trade secrets, common law misappropriation, conversion, unfair competition, fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, two counts of negligent misrepresentation, two counts of breach of contract, fraudulent inducement and tortious interference. Phew."
Phew indeed. :agrue: If these allegations are only 10% true, Microsoft has still lived up to its reputation as being a very tough company to be partners with.
