Canadian smartphone manufacturer BlackBerry - which was earlier called Research In Motion (RIM) - has apparently bagged its biggest order ever; with the company, which launched a new lineup of its Blackberry
10 (BB10) handsets in January, recently revealing that one of its "established partners" was buying 1 million BB10 smartphones.

In a Wednesday statement pertaining to the biggest order in BlackBerry's history, Rick Costanzo - Executive VP of global sales for BlackBerry - said that an order for 1 million BB10 handsets underscores "a tremendous vote of confidence in BlackBerry 10.

Further noting that "consumers are ready for a new user experience, and BlackBerry 10 delivers," Costanzo said in the statement: "With strong partner support, coupled with this truly re-invented new platform, we have a powerful recipe for success."

However, with BlackBerry working with all the bigwig US carriers, as well as with corporate customers and government agencies, the company's spokeswoman Krista Seggewiss refrained from making any disclosure either about the "established partner" that had placed the big order for BB10 devices.

In fact, it was not only the BlackBerry spokeswoman who had refused to divulge any details about who had placed the order for 1 million BB10 handsets, even Verizon, AT&T and Sprint offered no comments on whether they were involved in the transaction with BlackBerry.
