Reports BlackBerry maker Research In Motion (TSX:RIM) maker could be on its own or part of group for bid on Nortel patents
VANCOUVER, BC – (May 9, 2011) Clearlease Reports BlackBerry maker Research In Motion (TSX:RIM) could enter the bidding for Nortel’s remaining wireless patents either by itself or as part of a consortium that would try to snatch the prize from Google, a patent expert said Monday May 9, 2011.
A San Francisco-based patent-buying firm called RPX Corp. has indicated to a bankruptcy court that it may bid for the wireless patent assets of Nortel Networks Corp., formerly Canada’s biggest technology company.
There’s also been reports that other technology companies, including RIM, may be interested in bidding against Google Inc. (Nasdaq:GOOG), which has formally offered US$900 million as a “stalking horse” bid for an auction to be held in June.
“It wouldn’t surprise me for RIM to bid directly or to possibly create a consortium to bid against Google, said Ehrlickman.
He said it would be similar to a consortium of competitors — Apple, Microsoft, Oracle and EMC —that bid against Google. to purchase the Novell software patent portfolio.
RPX could also lead a consortium “that includes RIM and other telecommunication and Internet companies as members.”
“I believe a consortium is what’s most likely.”
RPX Corp. spokesman Greg Spector said Monday the company recently listed its shares on New York’s Nasdaq stock exchange and couldn’t make any public comments at this time.
Google, best known for its search engine, developed the Android operating system for smartphones and tablet computers. Android is used in devices made by companies such as LG Electronics, Samsung, HTC and Motorola.
“Clearly, the price point requires deep pockets from a cash standpoint,” said Ehrlickman, whose firm is in Boca Raton, Fla. He said the bidding has the potential to go up 50 per cent or more.
RIM became the dominant smartphone maker with a proprietary operating system that is nearing the end of its lifecyle. The company’s Torch smartphones use the next generation operating system but the Waterloo, Ont.-based company has acknowledged the importance of Android by announcing its new PlayBook tablet will eventually be able to run Android applications.
Ehrlickman said the Nortel technology includes advanced wireless network patents as well as audio, video, data networking, Internet, web search and social networking patents.
