Zelfs RIM gaat in social networking (alhoewel om micro niveau). Samen met Telefonica zal RIM in november software introduceren waarmee groepen BlackBerry gebruikers tot een maximum van 5 personen documenten, foto's, muziek, agenda's etc met elkaar delen. De PC software die als host zal dienen zal gratis worden aangeboden. Uit het persbericht zijn de volgende features op te maken:

• Stay connected with wireless e-mail and Web browsing -- enables easy wireless access to up to five supported e-mail accounts (per user) using sophisticated wireless encryption security, allows shared contact lists and supports high-performance mobile Web browsing.
• Co-ordinate schedules using shared calendars -- provides a wireless shared calendar with the capability to check each others' availability, set up or modify appointments and send reminders.
• Remotely access content -- users can remotely download pictures, music, documents and other content on their desktop PC directly from their BlackBerry smartphone.
• Share photos and files -- users can share photos and files with other group members directly from their BlackBerry smartphone.
• Remotely secure the smartphones -- includes simple controls to enforce password protection or wirelessly erase a lost or stolen handset.
• Control smartphone use -- includes customizable wireless settings to control certain uses for each individual, such as the ability to restrict long-distance calls or certain on-line content.
• Protect smartphone content -- contacts, pictures and other data from the BlackBerry smartphone can be backed up automatically over the air (via a cellular or Wi-Fi network) to the desktop PC.
• Set up quickly and easily -- the BlackBerry Unite! software will be provided as a free download and, with the help of an easy-to-follow set-up wizard, can be installed in minutes on a desktop PC.
