For those of you familiar with DigitalSolace are well aware of, we have a heightened fascination with mobile manufacturer RIM and their Blackberry products. Not because we feel that their device are especially well made because at the moment they're not. I know it, you know it and even RIM knows it, which is why we have been especially critical at every opportunity provided to us.

However there's hope. According to BGR.com RIM is preparing to release a QNX software based Blackberry phone called the Colt. Blackberry devices currently run on Blackberry OS 6 with newer releases due to run OS 7. The software is arguably ancient in comparison to other mobile software. QNX is the software currently running on the Blackberry Playbook. When you compare the two, it's like suffocating one moment and breathing fresh oxygen the next. QNX is a lot more smoother and more stable than the current offerings on Blackberry phones. Whether this change of direction is going to work or not depends on one major factor. Is it too little too late or did the other players in the mobile game fail to hammer the final nail into RIM's coffin?
