On February 11, 2010, Research In Motion (RIM), the BlackBerry manufacturer, has posted a Twitter update saying that the company is expected to make “a big announcement” somewhere next week, during the Mobile World Congress show, which will take place in Barcelona. The only detail shown is that users should watch closely the company’s blog during the week of February 15th for this announcement. Brightpoint, the third-party global distributor, is the one who published the claim and has gained credibility thanks to its position (it is one of RIM’s close partners).

There is little known for sure about the Canadian company’s announcement, but it is possible that it is all about a new handset, as many companies show their new phones during the Barcelona show. This is only a presumption, as there have been no leaks concerning an imminent release. The announcement could be referring to BlackBerry OS or some key third-party applications used for handsets.
