Ban on BlackBerry devices continues

Research In Motion (RIM), a known market leader in making business class smart phones receiving ban for its messaging services. Already UAE announced the last date as 11th October to kill BlackBerry messaging services but Saudi Arabian government has started to ban services to devices manufactured by RIM. According to media Saudi communication and IT commission said that "RIM has not meet the regulations of the commission at the moment". Major three carriers have already stopped the messaging services to BlackBerry devices and a fine of $1.3million has been announced for those company's who doesn't cease the services to BlackBerry devices.

BlackBerry devices are used by terrorists because messages sent through these devices are hard to trace and encrypt. Due to security concerns several countries started to question RIM. We hope that RIM will come up with a suitable solution for this problem and messaging services would resume again.
