Rumor is Microsoft buying RIM

It is just a rumor but suffice it to say we’ve heard it from several unnamed sources. In the last two days.

Microsoft is thinking about buying Canadian company RIM – you know that lot that make the BlackBerrys. There’s possibly no truth in it whatever, but it makes sense in a perverse way.

Microsoft really has got the bit in its teeth about Apple and the iPhone and the BlackBerry would make a perfect fit with its corporate enterprise strategy.

That’s it – it’s a rumor.
