Five ideas that could turn around the fortunes of Research In Motion
ITProPortal is now turning its attention to Research In Motion and its recent troubles, which has seen the company announce 5,000 job cuts. Adding to this, is the news that the company’s flagship upcoming BlackBerry 10 OS has been delayed until 2013 – instead of arriving on phones toward the end of this year.
The problems inside the Canadian handset manufacturer have been apparent for some time, but last year’s outage of its BlackBerry services could not have helped matters. This left its handsets in Europe, Middle East, Africa, India, and parts of South America without email, web browsing abilities and BlackBerry Messenger for the best part of a week. This essentially rendered BlackBerry phones useless and left them only with calling and SMS features, which was not great news for the millions that rely on these mobile phones for their businesses and managing everyday life.
We are now compiling a range of ideas and concepts that might help turn the fortunes of RIM around and restore the once good name of BlackBerry, with the sales figures it once achieved.
