America Movil and RIM Launch BlackBerry Wireless Solution In Mexico

Waterloo, ON - Research In Motion (RIM) (Nasdaq: RIMM; TSX: RIM) today announced the availability of the BlackBerry® wireless solution in Latin America for the first time through Radiomóvil Dipsa, S.A. de C.V. ("Telcel"), a wholly owned subsidiary of América Móvil and its operating company in Mexico. The companies will offer BlackBerry to mobile professionals in Mexico next week, operating on Telcel's nationwide GSM/GPRS network.

BlackBerry is the industry leading wireless solution for business professionals that want to stay connected and productive on the go. BlackBerry integrates hardware, software and services in an end-to-end solution to provide the best combined wireless email/data/phone experience.

RIM's Java™-based BlackBerry Wireless Handhelds™ are sleek and lightweight with always-on operation and provide users with an all-in-one wireless solution that supports email (including email attachments), mobile phone, intranet, web, SMS (Short Message Service) and organizer applications.

BlackBerry Enterprise Server™ software tightly integrates with Microsoft® Exchange or IBM Lotus® Domino™ to enable secure, push-based access to email with two-way wireless synchronization between the users' handheld and email account. BlackBerry Enterprise Server also includes a feature called Mobile Data Service that is uniquely designed to provide ISVs and in-house corporate developers with an environment that supports additional wireless corporate data access and interaction capabilities beyond email.

Telcel's nationwide GSM/GPRS network provides high-speed voice and data services in more than 315 cities throughout Mexico. As of June 30, 2003, Telcel has more than 21.3 million wireless subscribers.
