RIM increases daily app downloads by one million in a single month!

Posted by Knowlton Thomas on 2011-03-25 6:00:00 AM

In July of 2010, Research in Motion was experiencing one million mobile app downloads per day from its BlackBerry App World.

Seven months later, in February, the Waterloo-based company reached two million downloads per day.

Now, just one month later, the company has already hit its next milestone of three million daily downloads.

This impressive growth is really quite staggering, actually. While the numbers don't yet compare to Google's Android or Apple's iPhone platforms, RIM has always asserted its "quality over quantity" belief. This surge in the pace of downloads hasn't been explained by the company, but they have noticeably increased their marketing efforts, and the looming PlayBook may be getting people excited about the BlackBerry maker again.
