RIM report losses of $125million

The maker of Blackberry smart phones RIM has reported losses of $125million for the first quarter of 2012, compared to last year when the company made a profit of $934million. RIM suggested that they will refocus their market to businesses instead of the consumer market. This comes due to stiff competition from Apple’s iPhone and Google’s Android phones which outsell Blackberries. As a Blackberry user I hope this does not mean the end of services like BBM which I use every day and find a very useful tool for contacting my friends. What do you think about this move by RIM let us know by leaving us a comment below or sending @leatstechcorner a tweet.

This is the third time HTC have filed a complaint against Apple. Grace Lei has said in a statement "We are taking this action against Apple to protect our intellectual property, our industry partners, and most importantly our customers that use HTC phones”

Apple have also been sued by Samsung before, Samsung’s phones also use the Android operating system. It is clear that this is becoming a fight between Apple and Android.
