17 Nov 08 RIM Working on LTE BlackBerry?
Is RIM working on an LTE ready BlackBerry? Well sure it is! LTE is part of the near or far future. LTE will bring an extra G to current 3G speeds and it will be available sometime in 2011 or 2012. Hopefully by then 3G will be a common network for any carrier around the world.
Is RIM getting ready for 4G too early? Well I’d say the company should better prepare for the times ahead. If they’re going to keep rolling out handsets at least as promising as their latest Storm, they should be prepared to offer 100Mbps download speeds in the future.

[...] RIM has called it the “best-selling device” of Verizon so far. That’s such a nice thing to say but none of the two companies has actually released the number of sold Storms so far. How many people have returned the Storm? We don’t know that either. What’s more surprising is the fact that RIM has also declared it has sold 6.9 million smartphones from September to November. Now we’re not calling RIM liars but it’s a little too weird not to mention the number of sold Storms but to actually say the number of total phones sold in the last quarter. Especially since the number is really similar to the competition’s. Apple as sold just as many iPhones but the difference here is that Apple has only the iPhone to sell and that they have also mentioned their total sold iPhones. Is there anything RIM would like to add to its recent claims about the Storm? [...]
