RIM welcomes TAT!


12.2.10 Research In Motion http://blogs.blackberry.com/2010/12/rim-welcomes-tat/#disqus_thread

Today we are pleased to confirm plans for The Astonishing Tribe (TAT) team to join Research In Motion (RIM). We’re excited that the TAT team will be joining RIM and bringing their talent to the BlackBerry PlayBook and smartphone platforms.
For those who don’t know, TAT is renowned for their innovative mobile user interface (UI) designs and has a long history of working with mobile and embedded technology. TAT focuses on delivering great user experiences, from a design, technology, and usability perspective. Their design technology is used today in a variety of industries including the consumer electronics and automotive sectors. Examples of TAT’s UI designs and concepts can be viewed on their web site at www.tat.se.
– David Yach, Chief Technology Officer at RIM

The theory floating around online is that TAT will add polish to RIM's Playbook Tab.

I would say you can't polish a turd, but Mythbusters proved you indeed can.

RIM can have TAT, they need the UI help

Haha yeah, seems like a waste of a perfectly good home replacement app though.
