RIM Wins In Court Case Over BBM Trademark

Posted: 01 Jun 2012 08:58 AM PDT

BBM BlackBerry Cupcakes

We told you awhile back that BBM Canada (Bureau of Broadcast Measurement) sued RIM over using their BBM Trademark. I predicted back then that the case would be thrown out or ruled in RIM's favor since the trademark is for a company that measures Canadian TV and Radio audiences. The Federal Court of Canada confirmed that RIM did not infringe on BBM Canada's trademark. This is a nice reprieve for RIM since BBM Canada wanted RIM to pay them to change their name.

Either way isn't it nice when the court systems actually do something that makes sense instead of all this patent nonsense? Thanks RedNightHawk for sending this in via CNet & Reuters

Televisa Derportes Now Available For the BlackBerry PlayBook

Posted: 01 Jun 2012 05:55 AM PDT

IMG_00000047

Over the last two years I seen an increase support from Spanish/Latino media for the BlackBerry platform. The Televisa group is a Mexican multimedia company one of the largest in Latin America, and now they have launched a slick looking application for the BlackBerry PlayBook. Univision is the largest Latino T.V network in the US and it was one of the first to offer their Sports application for sports aficionados around this time last year.

One of the really interesting things about their application is the fact that they took their time to also provide the user with a short user guide that includes gestures to get the most out of the app.  The home page includes the latest sports news, if you swipe down the app brings a carrousel that allows you to switch between video content, FĂștbol  (Soccer), News, and a picture gallery.

The app loads content pretty fast including videos and it plays within a popup window within the app, and pictures load fast you can swipe to browse the image galleries. If they could only integrate live streaming of major sporting events that would be cool, though the PlayBook can stream live video directly from the websites.

NOTE: The app is only in Spanish and offers news about all the major sports.

Download the app for free at the following link.
