Hot out of BlackBerry World 2012 and we're full steam ahead for BlackBerry 10. Some leaked screen caps have turned up in the CrackBerry forums that show off another awesome feature we just may see in BlackBerry 10 devices.
If these slides hold true, BlackBerry 10 may be sporting a built-in screen sharing feature. From the looks of it, you'll be able to share your phone screen while on a call - which is awesome for sharing presentations or just showing off some photos.
Research In Motion, which makes BlackBerry phones, may be looking at making the operating system open, which will allow other manufacturers to make smartphones using the platform.
"We get a lot of offers to make BlackBerry operating system open for other manufacturers to manufacture phones based on this OS. But we are yet to take a call on that," said Carlo Chiarello, senior vice president, smartphone business at RIM.
BlackBerry leads the pack when it comes to secure mobile platforms, according to a study by security firm Trend Micro, Bloor Research and Altimeter Group.
BlackBerry attained the highest average score, followed by Apple IOS, and Windows Phone, but Android was scored the lowest, the report said.
I’m Adrian Stone, and I am the Director of the BlackBerry Security Incident Response Team (BBSIRT) here at Research In Motion. The BBSIRT is responsible for responding to potential security issues and investigating vulnerability claims that may impact RIM’s products. Security is a priority for our customers, and that’s why I’ll be contributing regularly to this blog. For my first post, I want to provide some insight into how we investigate and respond to jailbreak-related reports.
Users looking to turn their Playbook into a semi-serious business device for use with e-mail will be glad to know that Blackberry maker Research in Motion (RIM) has released an official Playbook Mini Keyboard.
Doubling as a case and surprise surprise - a keyboard, the device communicates using 128 bit encryption (most likely over Bluetooth) but the only "problem" is the price - At $119 it's almost $100 cheaper than the 16 GB Playbook itself!
