South African mobile operator 8ta<\/a> has confirmed that Research in Motion (RIM<\/a>) has redesigned the architecture of its mobile operating system for BlackBerry<\/a> 10.<\/p>\n

BlackBerry 10 traffic will terminate on the carrier’s “Internet” APN – unlike the current BlackBerry Internet Services (BIS<\/a>) and BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES<\/a>) traffic that terminates on the “blackberry.net” APN.<\/p>\n

Subscription charges on the popular BIS data packages (hence the unlimited, flat-rated data packages) will fall away with the BlackBerry 10 operating system.<\/p>\n

This is to “enhance the user experience of consumers who download apps, games, music, videos, books, magazines and more via their handset,” 8ta said.<\/p>\n

The new BlackBerry 10 network architecture will enable mobile networks to package unique offers to consumers.<\/p>\n

8ta said that it will be offering a range of data and voice packages to cater for the varied needs of BlackBerry 10 users.<\/p>\n

\u201c8ta is uniquely positioned to offer high volume data packages to provide 8ta customers with a quality experience while using their BlackBerry 10 device,\u201d 8ta said.<\/p>\n

BlackBerry 10 deals and devices will be available through 8ta flagship stores and Telkom Direct Stores from 1 March 2013.<\/p>\n
