Research in Motion said to be working on an iPhone rival
Research in Motion is the maker of the hugely popular and successful Blackberry range of smartphones.
The company is now said to be working on a touch screen model of the Blackberry which could take on the Apple iPhone in the US market.
If this is true, it would become the first Blackberry model to have no regular keypad (keyboard).
Market reports suggest that the company could launch this new phone under the BlackBerry 9000 series.
These could appear in the market sometime in the first quarter of 2008. They are also likely to be targeted at general customers instead of business class customers.
RIM has decided to stay mum on these latest rumors in the market.

How positively obvious. In other news, rain is still wet. Of course RIM/Samsung/SonyErikson/Nokia is going to work on a phone along the lines of the iPhone, because of how popular the iPhone has become and how it has changed the whole cell-phone market.
