La recta final para el lanzamiento de BlackBerry 10 está comenzando y ya RIM ha confirmado que ha enviado equipo de pruebas para los departamentos de Research & Development.
Research In Motion ha anunciado hoy que ha presentado BlackBerry 10 a más de 50 operadores de redes inalámbricas de todo el mundo para la certificación en dichas redes.
Todos los teléfonos celulares pasan por un proceso de certificación en el que la compañía pone a prueba el hardware y el software para el funcionamiento y comportamiento en la red y verificar que todo trabaje como debe ser. El proceso generalmente tarda tres o cuatro meses.
Thorsten Heins dijo en comunicado de prensa:
I’m very pleased to confirm that we have passed a critical milestone in the development of our brand new mobile computing platform, BlackBerry 10. In the last week, BlackBerry 10 achieved Lab Entry with more than 50 carriers – a key step in our preparedness for the launch of BlackBerry 10 in the first quarter of 2013. We made this commitment during our recent results conference call and we have delivered. This process will continue in the coming months as more carriers around the world formally evaluate the devices and our brand new software.
I have spent the last several weeks on the road visiting with carrier partners around the world to show them the BlackBerry 10 platform and to share with them our plans for launch. Their response has been tremendous. They are excited about the prospect of launching BlackBerry 10 in their markets. Our respective teams are now engaged on the technical and commercial preparation of the launch of BlackBerry 10 and the lab entry is an important milestone in that context.
The hard work will not stop here as we build towards launch. Our developer teams are continuing to generate momentum to bring a wealth of applications to BlackBerry 10, our enterprise teams have started to present BlackBerry 10 devices and services to our business customers, and our engineers are fully mobilized to ensure that BlackBerry 10 launches flawlessly in the first quarter of 2013.
RIM dijo que ya su plataforma BB10 fue entregado a los proveedores, pero no dijo nada sobre los actuales y rumorados Smartphone.
RIM se espera el lanzamiento de BlackBerry 10 durante el primer trimestre de 2013.
