Both Intel and a bunch of professors connected to Apple and the FTC came out in support of the Judge Koh verdict against Qualcomm, even though it had been shown that the foundational evidence was manufactured contrary to the wishes of the DoJ, DoD and other agencies. That was well after Qualcomm was identified as a national treasure and ...
One of the last major initiatives former CEO Steve Ballmer launched before he left Microsoft was its Surface effort. It was designed to address the concern that the iPod would take over the PC world. During the Surface launch last week, it wasn't hard to see that Ballmer was right conceptually. It j...
Apple held its huge product announcement event last week, and what once had people besides themselves with excitement has become a near pointless program of copied features and missed expectations. It is a shame to watch -- much like it was when Apple fired Steve Jobs. It appears that the firm has f...
BlackBerry, formerly Research In Motion, is under a lot of scrutiny as it pursues its comeback strategy. An interesting question recently came up having to do with that effort: Is BlackBerry so busy focusing on growth and the future that it has forgotten about taking care of customer needs in the pr...
BlackBerry's new Z10 handset will be available in the U.S. later this week, and CEO Thorstein Heins believes it to be a quite the game changer. BlackBerry has seen its share of the smartphone market plummet in recent years, as Apple's iOS and Google's Android operating systems have taken the top two...
Goodbye, Research In Motion -- BlackBerry came out of the smartphone hinterlands on Wednesday with a new name to go with a revamped OS and two new devices. The company formerly known as "Research In Motion" made its rebranding official during several global launch events. "RIM becomes BlackBerry," C...
CEO Thorsten Heins apparently has suggested that Research In Motion may one day license its BlackBerry operating system and stop producing handset hardware.

Just days away from Research In Motion's Jan. 30 launch of the BlackBerry 10 platform, which includes a new operating system and a fresh lineup of phones, the advertising machine has yet to churn into action. That doesn't mean RIM isn't busy building buzz, however. Several press releases have fueled...
RIM delivered a mixed bag of news in its latest quarterly earnings, prompting the phone maker's stock to drop on Thursday by some 17 percent. The so-so report reignited fears that RIM will remain a marginal company, even if its upcoming BlackBerry 10 OS is a blockbuster success. In some respects, th...
Goldman Sachs has given Research In Motion a thumbs up -- relatively speaking -- telling investors on Thursday that there was a "30 percent chance" the company's long-awaited BlackBerry 10 smartphones would be a success. The investment bank upgraded the stock from "neutral" to "buy." It also lifted ...
Nokia has filed lawsuits against Research In Motion in the U.S., the UK and Canada seeking to enforce an arbitration ruling it won in Sweden. The dispute began when Nokia accused RIM of breaching a cross-licensing agreement that allowed RIM to use Nokia's standard-essential cellular patents. RIM had...
From time to time, we receive stark reminders of just how delicate our IT systems really are. Disaster preparation has risen to the top of the to-do list at many companies, thanks to the wrath of Hurricane Sandy several weeks ago. How can we maximize our chances of keeping communications open and da...
Worldwide mobile phone sales are continuing to take a hit in the sluggish economy even as smartphone figures rise, according to a Gartner report released Tuesday. The mobile device industry sold 428 million units in the quarter, a 3 percent drop from the same time last year. Smartphone sales are up ...
Research In Motion on Monday announced the date on which it has pegged its future: The BlackBerry 10 operating system and two new handsets running it will be officially introduced on Jan. 30. "The event will happen simultaneously in multiple countries around the world," said RIM spokesperson Kim Gie...
Research In Motion looked to turn the page with its PlayBook tablet on Wednesday with the release of the 2.1 update, which added features many users had hoped to see sooner. They include email and PIM enhancements, along with improved Android application support, as well as print via WiFi networks, ...
