NTP Rides Again

3:20 PM -- Blimey, it must be tiring to be part of the legal department at NTP Software Inc. The technology-licensing company has let loose its legal eagles once again this week, suing U.S. carriers AT&T Inc. (NYSE: T), Sprint Corp. (NYSE: S), and Verizon Wireless over alleged patent infringements in their mobile email offerings.

NTP is probably best known for legal action against Canadian device mavens BlackBerry , but it's also taken on Palm Inc. and others. As far as I can tell, however, going after the carriers is a new twist. (See NTP Takes Another Shot.)

Dan is to hats what Will.I.Am is to ridiculous eyewear. Fedora, trilby, tam-o-shanter -- all have graced the Jones pate during his career as the go-to purveyor of mobile essentials.

But hey, Dan is so much more than 4G maps and state-of-the-art headgear. Before joining the Light Reading team in 2002 he was an award-winning cult hit on Broadway (with four 'Toni' awards, two 'Emma' gongs and a 'Brian' to his name) with his one-man show, "Dan Sings the Show Tunes."

His perfectly crafted blogs, falling under the "Jonestown" banner, have been compared to the works of Chekhov. But only by Dan.
