RIM: No Indian BlackBerry Ban if We Can Help It

Indian BlackBerry users rest easy–Research in Motion is certain the Indian government won’t ban the device for lack of a means of monitoring its corporate email and messenger service. “There is no ban on BlackBerry, we are confident that there will be no ban in the future,” RIM VP Robert Crow said Tuesday. “We are here for the long run.”

It would seem, then, that RIM is on target to provide India’s Home Ministry with a solution that will allow it to “lawfully” monitor BlackBerry services by the January 31 deadline the two parties have agreed on.
