It seems that RIM has taken another blow delivered by Apple, as the Canadian based company has been bested by the Cupertino Bruiser on their home turf. We have seen a growing decline in loyalty to RIM, with numerous US Government Agencies abandoning Blackberry devices for the iPhone.

When Apple released the Smart Cover, other companies looked at it with the same envy as they did with Apple’s electronics.
