RIM Launches BlackBerry Z10 Smartphone

Research In Motion -- now just "BlackBerry" -- finally took the wraps of its much-leaked BlackBerry Z10 smartphone, the first phone to run the BlackBerry 10 mobile OS.

The Z10 will be the first in a new class of products for RIM, created to go toe-to-toe with the likes of Apple's iPhone and flagship Android superphones such as the Samsung Galaxy S III.

The BlackBerry Z10 has a 4.2-inch screen with 356 pixels per inch (ppi).

The company also revealed the Q10. It has the trademark BlackBerry keyboard.

CEO Thorstein Heins said, "BlackBerry 10 devices are absolutely the best typing experience in the industry. Period."
