BlackBerry pulls Life Support for its Business Smartphone

BlackBerry, is pulling the plug on service for its business smartphones, which were loved by executives, politicians and legions of fans.
The move marks the end of an era as the phones, which sported a tiny QWERTY physical keyboard, pioneered push email and the BBM instant messaging service.
Blackberry lost favor with users with the arrival of touchscreen iPhones and Android. In recent years, the company pivoted to making cybersecurity software and embedded operating systems for cars.
