BlackBerry 10 smartphones on January 30, the company said on Monday,
giving investors a measure of confidence that the long-awaited devices
are nearing completion.
The Waterloo, Ontario-based company, a one-time pioneer in the
smartphone industry, is betting its future on the new products, which
will be powered by its new BlackBerry 10 operating system. Its shares
rose 5.5 percent to $9.01 in trading before the U.S. stock markets
opened.
RIM has struggled over the last two years as its devices lost ground
to snazzier and faster smartphones like Apple Inc's iPhone and Samsung
Electronics' Galaxy line.
RIM said the twice-delayed launch would take place simultaneously in
multiple countries. It will introduce two BlackBerry 10 smartphones as
well as the platform that powers them.
The company has said the first devices will have touchscreens. Phones
with the mini QWERTY keyboards that many long-time BlackBerry users
rave about will come a few weeks later.
The company did not say when the devices will be available in stores.
