"The maker of BlackBerry e-mail devices lost an emergency Supreme Court appeal on Wednesday that sought to suspend a long-running patent suit against the company. The company, Research In Motion, is appealing a patent infringement verdict to the high court and sought to freeze lower court proceedings while the appeal was pending. Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. denied the company's request for a stay, without comment."
This move puts RIM one step closer to halting sales of the popular BlackBerry devices in the US. A Yahoo! News article last week has additional information. My understanding is everyting revolves around the push technology RIM has implemented.
