Blackberry goes to China

BlackBerry wireless e-mail services will soon reach mainland China, according to Research In Motion (RIM) on Thursday.

RIM is partnering with China Mobile Communications on the deal which will give RIM access to the burgeoning region with all the advantages of coupling with the world’s biggest mobile carrier by number of subscribers.

The service will be targeted at corporations who are already familiar with BlackBerry handsets and will be available at a later date, RIM said Thursday.

RIM said that after an initial three to four months of connecting the “few hundred thousand” corporate customers it has waiting for the service the Canadian firm will focus on the home-grown professional market.
