RIM reportedly hanging up on BlackBerry phone hardware
Among several options that Research In Motion(s rimm) is currently reviewing for its continued transition is the sale of its BlackBerry handset division. The company last month said it was working with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and RBC Capital Markets to determine next steps as RIM expects an operating loss for its first fiscal quarter of 2013.
I still stand by a post i wrote a month or so ago. Rim will flog its data network and enterprise division off to either Google or Apple who are desperate to get claws into corp infrastructure and have no solid offerings of their own. And while i could see Facebook looking for a phone manufacturer to be honest it could base a Facebook phone on the already known for messaging blackberry however it's a terrible form factor..
