So, Blackberry/RIM is doing pretty badly at the moment, and bleeding lost customers from its veins. Dell have decided to also pull up their Blackberry sticks, and have opted to give 25,000 of their staff Dell Venue phones, running Windows Phone 7, to all those that swap their Blackberrys for it. Some how, I don't think there will be much choice in the matter.
But maybe there might still be some hope for better days and some innovation at RIM. They have announced a tie-up with a door-lock maker, that specialises in the door-locks that most commercial buildings use. New Blackberrys will be able to swipe and open these office doors, which is advantageous for many reasons. A clever move to keep themselves still relevant in the business world.
