BlackBerry has been facing stiff competition from Apple and Android devices and its overall sales of handsets have gone down considerably. In order to boost its sales and fortunes, BlackBerry is placing big bets on its ecos-system and of late it has taken its highly popular BBM messaging service to iOS and Android oeprating system with grand success. This is another attempt by beleagured Canadian company to bring back its lost customers to its BB10 devices and see some upwards movements in its devices.
