RIM will stop pretending it's a consumer company and refocus itself on the development of business-centric services and products, relying on partnerships to augment its consumer features. He admitted RIM had spread itself too thin "trying to be all things to all people." It will still foster the still-growing emerging markets with a new line of low-cost BlackBerry 7 smartphones, and likely offer discounts to slow the bleeding and get more BlackBerrys on the market.

While Heins said the company's main intent is to remain independent, he opened the door to a possible sale as the company looks todescribed for Europeans and North Africans. Both the estimated divergence times among samples and the high population heterogeneity revealed by Alu data are compatible with population differences since the first islands' settlement in the Paleolithic period. However, the high within-population diversities and the remarkable homogeneity observed in both STR and Alu/STR haplotype variation indicated that, at least since Neolithic times, gene flow has been acting in west Mediterranean. Genetic drift in west-coast Sardinia and gene flow in west Sicily have contributed to their general differentiation, whereas Corsica, Majorca and east Sicily seem to reflect more recent historical relationships from continental south Europe.
