Research In Motion Limited (NASDAQ:RIMM) said that they plan to meet an August 31 deadline for the Indian government. The Indian government will be able to monitor corporate e-mail and messenger services. The Indian government had a concern with terrorists using BlackBerry devices to communicate with each other using corporate e-mail and messenger services.

RIM VP for industry, government, and university relations Robert E. Crow said that he is optimistic about resolving security concerns in India. According to a statement, RIM said that the company “genuinely tries to be as cooperative as possible with governments in the spirit of supporting legal and national security requirements, while also preserving the lawful needs of citizens and corporations.”

pwn Apple iOS 4 Jailbreak Won’t Be Called SpiritWe’ve all been waiting for a while for the new jailbreak for iOS 4 and it sure seems we are on the right track. I know many of you are very anxious for the tool to be released but I’m not. I really want my jailbreak back too but I want it stable and bug free, which is why it hasn’t been released yet.

We’ve all been thinking the new jailbreak will just be an update to Spirit, and we all assumed the name of the tool would be Spirit 2 or something along these lines. Today a little bird tells me the new jailbreak for iOS 4 and iPhone 4 will not be called Spirit.

Now don’t ask me what it’s going to be because I don’t know. iPhone hacker iH8Sn0w joked that the new jailbreak would include “pie” in its name but this is not true.

Just for the fun of it, what do you think it should be called? Sn0wSt0rm? Blu3Thund3r? UltraDr1zzle?
