 RIM has applied for a patent on a Sliding design. I guess I have to ask why? The first one I guess I ever saw was the HTC Wizard. Now, HTC offers a plethora of designs featuring this design and Nokia, Sony, and others have copied it. Yet, RIM feels it necessary to patent it? Maybe there is more to this Patent than meets the eyes. It does feature a trackball, and the screen overlay does look a little larger and maybe offeres some sort of panel behind the screen? But I am guessing its nothing that we haven't already seen from many mobile phone manufacturers.
Expect Lawsuits!
