RIM is going head-to-head against Google this May, holding its main yearly conference in direct competition with Google’s the third week in May.
Renamed BlackBerry Live, RIM will be using the conference to let developers get more hands-on time with BlackBerry 10, meet the leaders behind the platform and to talk about what’s next for BlackBerry.
Registration for the event will be open soon.
Google I/O, Google’s annual developer's conference, will be taking place at roughly the same time, May 15-17, 2013, at the Moscone Center in San Francisco. As I/O is known for huge announcements and product giveaways, RIM will have a lot to compete with.
At last year’s conference, Google announced Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, the Nexus 7 tablet and the Nexus Q media-streaming device. Google co-founder Sergey Brin also demonstrated the company's new Google Glass by skydiving onto the Moscone Center wearing a pair of the futuristic glasses.
BlackBerry 10 is expected to launch on Jan. 30th.
