An Ontario court has issued an interesting decision in a copyright battle between Research in Motion and Atari (the National Post incorrectly suggested it is a patent case over the weekend, but it is actually copyright).

RIM launched an action in Ontario seeking a declaration that it is not infringing Atari's copyright.
