RIM goes bold, again
In: BlackBerry| Mobile Phones| News
29 Oct 2010It appears that our dream of seeing Jim Balsillie and Steve Jobs resolve their differences in the octagon have gone up in smoke. It’s a shame as we think that all tech fans would like to see an internet geek scrap turn into full contact fisticuffs, especially when the people in question are pretty wealthy. [...]
RIM responds to Steve Jobs
In: Apple| BlackBerry| Mobile Phones| News
25 Oct 2010When Mr Jobs launched his attack on just about everyone in the mobile phone industry that isn’t Apple the other week, no one expected it would end there. We think it would have shown a bit of class to let this geek war die the death that it deserves to, but we guess we underestimated [...]
Steve Jobs goes off on one, Android and Blackberry get served
In: Apple| BlackBerry| Mobile Phones| News
19 Oct 2010Steve Jobs decided to attend an Apple earnings call on Monday night. Nothing spectacular in that you might think. You could even describe it as boring and not very interesting. But Steve Jobs used the earnings call to dish out abuse like a drunken stand up comedian. Except they weren’t really zingers, it was all [...]

In: BlackBerry| News
30 Sep 2010RIM has been pretty busy of late. With the hype surrounding the PlayBook and the 9800 Torch RIM are very much in the spotlight right now. So it was somewhat of a surprise to hear that RIM is trumpeting a less is more approach when it comes to apps. The company seems to be quite [...]
BlackBerry PlayBook: Tablet market face off continues
In: BlackBerry| News
28 Sep 2010With a big song and dance, Blackberry has announced their answer to the iPad which is jauntily titled the PlayBook. It is, in all honesty, a bit of a strange name. The name PlayBook sounds like something you’d see on Cbeebies at two in the afternoon. But according to the technical specifications the PlayBook seriously [...]
UK among the cheapest for mobile broadband
In: BlackBerry
13 Aug 2010Mobile broadband customers in the UK could be among those to be encouraged by the fact that the country is one of the world's cheapest when it comes to mobile internet deals.
The news could be especially good for those customers who are currently researching the market with a view to switching providers in order to [...]
RIM has been suspiciously quiet of late, letting Apple hog all the spotlight. Now it looks like they were busy beavering away on their latest project: the BlackBerry Torch 9800. A phone which they hope will ‘torch’ the opposition. Sorry we just couldn’t resist that pun.
In something of an odd or brave move depending on [...]
