Research in Motion has decided to join in the Diwali festivities by offering BlackBerry smartphones and BlackBerry PlayBook owners free apps worth Rs. 2000. These apps are listed in the BlackBerry App World under the 'Festive offer' section and includes theme, games and a couple of utility apps. The offer is valid for a limited time.

In October 2011, BlackBerry had given out free apps worth $100 (approximately Rs. 5000) as a goodwill gesture post the worldwide outage which had seen BlackBerry services go down for about three days. However, this time the apps are more of a feel good factor.
