"The maker of the Blackberry device has won a stay of execution after a US judge opted not to impose an immediate injunction closing its service. Research In Motion (RIM) is embroiled in a legal dispute with technology firm NTP, which says the Blackberry has infringed its patents. Blackberry could have been forced to shut down its mobile e-mail service in the US immediately. But Judge James Spencer said he would consider an injunction in the future."
