RIM Details Their Roadmap for Code Signing – Still Seems Relatively Useless
I have always had a huge issue with code signing for BlackBerry applications.

I have mentioned before that I am really waiting for RIM to release the Cascades UI framework to developers but there is another milestone I am waiting for.
