Keith Pardy, head of marketing at Research In Motion is leaving the company in six months for personal reasons. This makes us wonder what changes will take place, if any, and is this a good or bad thing for RIM? They will soon launch their Blackberry Playbook tablet so this notice of resignation comes as a huge surprise to RIM right before the launch.

Seeing how saturated the market is with netbook’s and tablet’s these days, we want to know what you think. Are there too many options available that make your decision harder when deciding what to purchase? Or do you feel like you should have several choices available?
Either way, the decision’s not always easy for everyone so this article will help those who are currently shopping for one and aren’t sure what to do.
One hot topic on the internet right now is the unveiling of the iPad2 which took place on March 2, 2011 by Apple’s Steve Jobs in California. Following the announcement, Samsung immediately admitted they feel they have a tough challenge to face and have to make some changes.

Would you mind if Sprint changed directions from 4G to LTE? Most of us know that Sprint was among the first to dip into a 4G market and now they may become the first to change their strategy after doing so. We are going to explain the situation currently as well as some of the reasons for Sprints actions.
If you have T-Mobile voice service with a broadband card there are some good deals heading your way. Keep in mind, you must have voice service too, not just a broadband card.
T-Mobile will soon introduce their new webConnect broadband rate plans. The good deal, based on what we can tell so far, is that some will qualify for a 20% discount when paired with a qualifying voice line.

You read right! The folks over at BGR is reporting that they have information from multiple trusted sources that Research In Motion (RIM) is planning on bringing its Blackberry Messenger (BBM) service to Android, and eventually iOS.

Sources say Google is claiming that Microsoft is stealing their search abilities and have had little influence on people’s search habits. It seems while Bing is growing, Yahoo and Google are both down a few percent as you can see in the chart above.

If you just missed the announcement by Apple don’t worry. Were here to share the information Intomobile has collected. Steve Jobs was the one who took to the stage at the Yerba Buena Center in San Francisco today, something some of us wondered. He did show up although he’s currently on medical leave. Way to go Steve!
Sony is making a move for the majors! Sony Ericsson is partnering with Major league Gaming to showcase Xperia™ PLAY. This is an interesting move by Sony and what looks like a direct attack against Windows phone 7 and their Xbox live integration. Trying to capture the MLG is huge because they have a huge influence on the Xbox Live community.
