BlackBerry suing Ryan Seacrest's keyboard startup

I was waiting to see how long this was going to take to happen.

It clearly looks like a BB keyboard. I see them having no problems getting this keyboard taken off the grid.

This is my favorite part...

"This is a blatant infringement against BlackBerry's iconic keyboard, and we will vigorously protect our intellectual property against any company that attempts to copy our unique design," BlackBerry's general counsel and chief legal officer Steve Zipperstein said in a statement. "We are flattered by the desire to graft our keyboard onto other smartphones, but we will not tolerate such activity without fair compensation for using our intellectual property and our technological innovations."

Start out fiery then end with snark. I hope they bankrupt this company and Seacrest.... :D
