RIM's difficulties leading up to the launch of BlackBerry 10 continued today as the company posted its fiscal Q3 2013 earnings report. The company reported an adjusted net loss of $114 million on $2.73 billion in revenue.

BlackBerry Z10 leaked as name of first BlackBerry 10 phone

BlackBerry 10 Hardware Teaser

According to a leaked image, we now have a name for the first BlackBerry 10 phone: the BlackBerry Z10. Unwired View has posted an apparently leaked piece of promotional material from a trusted source, showing a phone that looks much like the L-Series we've seen before in both black and white accompanied by text reading "The New BlackBerry Z10." The new phone is expected on January 30th, when RIM holds its official BlackBerry 10 launch event.

The L-Series or Z10 is an all-touch device; we've been seeing it in various stages of development since last year, when it was known by the codename London. There's also supposed to be a physical keyboard-equipped phone coming later, but it's been seen less frequently. Unwired View says its name is still unknown, though they tentatively dub it the BlackBerry X10. RIM has had a tough time...

BlackBerry 10 Hardware Teaser

BlackBerry 10 is finally nearing release, and now RIM has posted what looks like the first official shot of the hardware we'll be seeing next year. The BlackBerry 10 page shows the back of what looks like a slab phone with a textured back, something we're guessing is all-touch L-Series that's been leaked several times over the past year — though the change to a stippled texture is something new. RIM is holding a launch event on January 30th...

After a month-long beta period, RIM has announced general availability of its latest version of BlackBerry Messenger. Free Wi-Fi calling between BBM users heads up the new list of features for BBM 7.0 — RIM calls it BBM Voice — allowing BlackBerry owners to quickly switch from text-based chats to voice conversations. RIM's implementation of Wi-Fi calls seemed well-executed when we had a glimpse at the update last month, and should be a...
