BlackBerry has received an order for 1 million units

As said by the company BlackBerry, the firm has received the order of 1 million units of its new mobile phones, which makes it the largest order in the history of the company. Not yet disclosed who made such a request, but I'm sure I'm not the only person eager to know. Everything indicates that the order came from one of his associates, but no one seems to be aware of who he is.

Given the large number of devices, it is possible that whoever did this request is none other than the Government of Canada. The truth is that today it is likely that even the U.S. government can require as many phones, so we can not think of any reason anyone would want to buy.

The first earnings report after the launch of BlackBerry platform BB10 will be released near the end of this month, so then you can see how well he has gone to the Canadian company in this area.

What would you do with 1 million units of the new Z10 and Q10 BlackBerry?

The phones of RIM have not been what many expected and its technology has been somewhat "short", and while the company still has some loyal followers, the BlackBerry market share has plummeted since the arrival of iOS and Android. Many complained when RIM announced that BB10 would be launched only in 2013, but what if the wait really worth it? If the company takes the time to make your new platform to work properly, then it could be the rope that will pull the pit in which they find themselves.
It's easy to say that iOS and Android BlackBerry crushed, but certainly we all like good returns and RIM may have chosen a perfect time to return. It will be the only company to introduce a new platform in the first quarter of 2013 and it seems that many are willing to give the manufacturer a new opportunity.
Another point is also key to the victory possible RIM: international sales. The market U.S., UK, China and Japan is large, but we must not forget the rest of the world's countries and continents like Africa where RIM devices still continue to sell quite well. Perhaps RIM fails to conquer the few large markets, but you can still try to conquer the hundreds of small markets.
As noted above, in only five weeks we'll know.
