Research in Motion (RIM) has agreed to allow Indian security agencies to monitor its BlackBerry services, The Economic Times newspaper reported on Tuesday, after pressure from governments worried about national security. I believe RIM  will also follow same route with Dubai and Saudi governments which are also putting pressure on RIM to open their blackberry services for monitoring.

RIM has offered to share with Indian security agencies its technical codes for corporate email services, open up access to all consumer emails within 15 days and also develop tools in six to eight months to allow monitoring of chats, the paper said, citing internal government documents.

RIM will provide further details on its proposals to the Indian telecoms ministry on Tuesday, the newspaper said.

The Blackberry’s tight email security has been key to its popularity with businesses, and is RIM’s main selling point against Apple Inc , Nokia and other rivals. But governments like the UAE, Saudi Arabia and India are concerned that those same features make it difficult for them to monitor BlackBerry messages for national security purposes.

Nokia fans this is a real treat , check out a glimpse of  MeeGo’s ( nokia’s future mobile OS) prerelease stock UI for handsets.This one minute, twenty-nine seconds of video footage walks us through five parts of MeeGo OS like starting up, the “powerful multitasking UI,” getting connected, the Ovi Store experience, and the music player.

This is a treat to watch and I’m loving the direction in which nokia is going with its new OS, especially the powerful and innovative UI.It is important to know that Intel and nokia are backing the hardware side and this should be enough to getting these sets into reality. In short this is entirely different direction from iPhone iOS and Android and also Windows Phone 7 , though it has strong social integration at OS level like Windows Phone 7.  The UI is getting polished and final picture is starting to look more clear now. I am really excited to see the preview and waiting for Nokia to let us know the release dates of new generation handsets with MeeGo on it.

We’ll keep you posted on MeeGo related news, handsets and events.
