Last night we got invited from Research In Motion (RIM) for an exclusive bloggers seminar at Marina Hotel.
RIM started with highlighting very interesting facts such as:
-BlackBerry’s still the No.1 smartphone in Kuwait.
-BlackBerry packages in Kuwait are the lowest in the region.
-BBM is still the most secured messenger and the most used by governments.
-BlackBerry subscribers has doubled (120% increase) in the Middle East.
-AppWorld has over 36,000 applications since it was launched in May 2011.
RIM’s representative then gave us a sneak peek on BlackBerry’s latest OS 7.1 features such as:
-FM Radio: Users can share music.
-Wi-Fi Hotspot: Up to 5 devices can share WiFi connectivity.
-NFC-enabled: Users can share media files, information, URLS instantly by tapping NFC-Enabled BlackBerry phones.
-Ability to use Android applications on BlackBerry.
RIM also shown us their latest smartphones and said that BlackBerry PlayBook will receive many enhancements on the software soon.
We wish to thank RIM for their invitation and we brought you more pictures from the Seminar.
I thought it would be the iphone or android hmmm
LOL! A Press Conference in Kuwait, WHY? Well, Kuwaitis are the ones behind the company’s success & without Kuwaiti users, RIM would get bankrupt before they know it! NOKIA INVENTS, ANDROID CREATES & APPLE RULES!
RIM as a company is currently in crisses they need to partnerup with someone like android or apple in order to survive. We are now looking at the end of RIM.
I totally agree!
And it’s iPhone FTW :P
