Research In Motion has little to kvetch about these days, especially when you consider that it essentially doubled its sales and profits from the same quarter a year ago. The BlackBerry maker recently announced that it had not only passed the ten-million subscriber mark, but "that its profit and revenue more than doubled in the period." Furthermore, the firm noted that "results should be better than expected for the rest of the year," and it suggested that the "outperformance was driven by the strong product cycle, as well as the diversification of its user base across multiple geographies and market segments."
When you make a solid device that appeals to more than the "business" crowd, this is what happens.
