Blackberry maker dismisses Apple's response on reception issue

Technology company Research In Motion - which makes the Blackberry line of devices - has rubbished Apple's claims that there are reception issues with all smartphones.

Last night, Apple announced that it was giving away a free case with all iPhone 4s after it admitted that the phone lost signal when held in a certain way.

This morning RIM described Apple's attempts to draw its phones into what it calls, the company's "self-made debacle" as unacceptable and called on Apple to take responsibility for the issue.
