Layoffs hit RIM

. Almost exactly one year ago, The Waterloo Record reported that struggling smartphone maker Research In Motion began laying off workers in an effort to cut costs. On Tuesday evening, 364 days later, the publication again reports that layoffs have begun to sweep RIM. Reports emerged last month suggesting that RIM plans to lay off at least 10% of its global workforce, or approximately 2,000 employees, as the company bides time until its first BlackBerry 10 smartphone launches later this year.
