RIM Extends Certicom Takeover Bid Window

Despite the raucous opposition, BlackBerry (NSDQ: RIMM)-maker Research in Motion is extending their deadline for finalizing aquistion of security firm Certicom from the 15th. of January to the 27th. To be fair, RIM could just keep on pushing the deadline back, but odds are if the shareholders haven’t bitten by the end of January, odds are the $1.50 per share won’t cut it. The chilly economic climate might actually be fine conditions for picking up companies on the cheap – RIM’s already picked up Chalk, who knows what else they’re eying.
