BlackBerry ends licensing deal with T-Mobile

REUTERS - BlackBerry Ltd (BB.TO) said on Tuesday it will not renew its license with T-Mobile U.S. Inc (TMUS.N) to sell BlackBerry products after the current contract expires on April 25. The Canadian company said it will continue to provide service and support to existing customers on T-Mobile's network or those who will buy products from the carrier's inventory. "Regretfully, at this time, our strategies are not complementary and we must act in the best interest of our BlackBerry customers," BlackBerry Chief Executive John Chen said in a statement. BlackBerry said it is "working closely" with other carrier partners to provide users with alternatives should they decide to switch from T-Mobile.
