RIM overhauls BlackBerry OS

(1/3) > >>

Simon:
RIM has confirmed it will launch a new operating system for its BlackBerry smartphones in the next quarter, as it looks to close the features gap on more consumer-friendly rivals.

Describing the long-awaited operating system as one of the "biggest BlackBerry overhauls in years", RIM co-Chief Executive Mike Lazaridis showed a short video of the OS to analysts gathered in Orlando, Florida.  At the heart of the OS is a more finger friendly interface, a customisable home screen, widgets and a much improved browser - long considered a weakness of the phone.
