RIM remains interested in acquiring Nortel patents and assets

Here’s your hourly fix of BlackBerry news:

On Saturday, Nortel officially sold a portfolio of CDMA and next-generation LTE wireless assets to Swedish Ericsson. While RIM did not enter the Nortel bid officially, they’re still looking for ways to acquire some of Nortel’s technology.
However, we’ve learned today that RIM and Nortel have been in negotiations over other key patents related to the next-generation wireless business “for months.”
On Sunday, RIM reiterated that it “remains interested in acquiring certain Nortel assets,” without providing specifics.
All of this information leads me to believe that RIM will find a way to acquire the CDMA and LTE technology, required to future proof BlackBerry devices and keep costs low but not having to pay royalties for the technology.
The question is: what patents are left to be sold, and will they be enough for RIM’s long term strategy?
