RIM's brought in $432 million in cash-flow from operations for the quarter. Its total cash is $2.3 billion, a $100 million increase.
It is apparent that RIM if at all it starts progressing again after BB10 release will need a long time to reposition itself back to glory days. But blackberry have had so much to deliver to its customers from “PUSH -Technology” to end-toend security to now placement and integration of fuel cells in its devices which enables the blackberry to recharge itself. These amazing features are unique . Even more unique is the fact that not a single blackberry phone has been hacked till date which makes Blackberry the safest smart -phones among its competitors. Aware consumers have high expectations from BB10 which even provides multi -language s upport in a single text message.
