RIM says will still make keypads for BlackBerrys
Research in Motion Ltd. (RIM) is offering developers a guaranteed $10,000 cash payment for any app the company certifies for its Blackberry 10 handset. The move is aimed at encouraging developers to build programs for the handset's forthcoming system refresh, which is largely incompatible with Blackberry's existing software. Alec Saunders, RIM's vice president of developer relations, made the payment guarantee announcement on Wednesday during the company's BlackBerry World 2012 annual developer conference in Orlando, Florida.

Nearly one-in-four were purpose built for RIM's Playbook tablet, he said. Separately, the company announced that future BlackBerry models
