Blackberry Woes

The popular smart phone Blackberry manufactured by RIM is butting heads with the UAE, Saudia Arabia and India.

The three countries have concerns over the way in which messages are sent over the RIM network. All data is sent through servers at RIM`s headquarters in Canada. The BBC reported that RIM does not permit any third party or even RIM itself to read any of the data that is sent through its servers.

The UAE and Saudia Arabia have already announced deadlines for RIM to comply. Blackberry has become increasingly popular in Asia and the Middle East. Its popularity is due to its email functions, peer to peer messaging capabilities and text messaging.
