Blackberry OS 6 Video #2

RIM has released another Blackberry OS 6 video. I thought the first video and OS 6 stunk. This one, however, is pretty good and shows some features of OS 6.0 we haven’t seen before like better integration with social networks and the RSS reader (they bought Viigo, perhaps to help with this project). For video #3, I have some suggestions: What about the calendar? How about the 3rd party apps?

I still believe that RIM needs to get on board with Android but I read an interesting piece in BetaNews suggesting RIM will stay competitive with enterprise customers much like Nextel has. Nonetheless, RIM plus Android would be a combination that would strike fear in other device manufacturers because, sans Storm 1 and Tour, RIM builds really good hardware. Toss in a proprietary email app and some method of using RIM’s email push patents, and RIM has a red hot product. Will this happen? Not anytime soon and probably never.
