Here is a link to a more in depth article from The Times of India that discusses the India vs. RIM battle I mentioned earlier.

BusinessWeek now reports that the Indian government may be backing down after it had hinted that RIM may be barred from operating in the country if it didn’t allow for back door monitoring.

“There is no question of banning at this point,” telecom secretary Siddhartha Behura told reporters, adding the government was talking to telecom operators.

Indian government officials, telecommunications service providers, and executives of RIM earlier met to work out a solution to demands from the Indian government that it should have access to, and the ability to intercept, mails sent over RIM’s BlackBerry service, according to a report from India paper Business Standard.
