Right, but RIM's defense is
"The company is expected to continue arguing that U.S. patent laws do not apply to it because it operates in Canada."

If that were truly the case, anyone could then knowingly infringe on a patent, but set up their "Headquarters" in a differnt country and then continue to build on others patents.

International patents would stop this, but in many cases why go that route if you know the idea you patented would be used almost exclusively in the US.
