RIM Acquires Social Calendaring Application Tungle.Me

"RIM has been making a number of acquisitions in the past few months, including HTML5 mobile developer TinyHippos, professional contact manager Gist, and UI development team The Astonishing Tribe."<p>Add QNX to that list and it almost sounds like RIM may be able to acquire their way back into the market.

Great product that solves a real problem. Not sure though how it fits in with RIM's goal to get back on top since this isn't a major concern for their customers. Was it just for the talent?

From a talent perspective, this is a brilliant move. The Tungle team is top notch. I think they bought a team that knows calendaring inside and out, not a technology per se.
