According to various reports, RIM reached an agreement with Microsoft to put Live Search in the Blackberry browser as a search engine and for Blackberry Maps. Live Search is expected to be shipped sometime later this year.

From October, a Blackberry application for MySpace will also be released, adding to the similar software for rival Facebook that RIM has already released.

And by the end of the year, a TiVo suite will be released that will allow Blackberry users to view electronic program guides (EPGs) and schedule recordings.
