RIM: No BlackBerry Messenger on iOS in April

Research in Motion has shot down a wild rumor that its BlackBerry messaging app would be available on iOS starting April 26.
The rumor started Tuesday night when a poster at the MacRumors forums said she had attended a social media conference in Toronto with RIM’s chief executive, Jim Basillie, and that he promised the messaging platform was headed to Apple’s iOS next month.
The problem? There was no conference. RIM told Boy Genius Report, “RIM did not hold a conference in Toronto this week, and Jim Basillie did not speak at any event in Toronto this week.” Well. That’s pretty definitive.
