BlackBerry maker Research in Motion is preparing to launch an iPad competitor in November, and it will be called the BlackPad, according to a report citing two people familiar with the company's plans.

Comment: And what RIM really needs is an app to feed business video news to the pad's users - a business Blinkx Beat, if you like (or a cheaper Reuters Insider)
I think we're going to see a slew of pads in the forthcoming months/years - Android, RIM, Win7 - and they're all gonna need compelling video apps to keep peole engaged.
Still mystified as to why Blinkx isn't on the Apple platforms, though (iPhone, iPad, iPod). Maybe all will become clear in time - but Blinkx being Blinkx I wouldn't bet on it...
