At long last RIM is finally ready to battle iOS and Android. Well, not quite yet, but in about two and a half months, it will be.
RIM announced a BlackBerry 10 launch event on Jan. 30, 2013 on Monday. The Canadian company hopes the next-generation mobile operating system and its accompanying smartphones will be give it a competitive edge against iOS and Android. BlackBerry 10 was expected to launch in 2012 before the holidays but was pushed to the first quarter of 2013 for unspecified reasons.
At the event, RIM will unveil the first two smartphones made specifically for BlackBerry 10. The phones are expected to be the L and N series according to leaked information. Video of the L series “London” smartphone phone in action surfaced in October.
The announcement from RIM doesn’t give an exact time or location of the launch event. Instead, the event is set to “happen simultaneously in multiple countries around the world” according to RIM.
