<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=3><B>VoiceCon 2005 &#150; ORLANDO,
Fla., &#150; Feb. 7, 2005 &#150; </B>3Com Corporation (Nasdaq: COMS) and Research In
Motion (RIM) (Nasdaq: RIMM; TSX: RIM) today announced that the companies are working
together to deliver a new wave of mobility in enterprise communications. By combining
3Com&#146;s Internet Protocol (IP)-private branch exchange (PBX) and wireless local area
network (WLAN) switch with RIM&#146;s BlackBerry&reg; wireless solution for WLAN networks,
the companies plan to offer a rich set of voice and data applications to on-campus
enterprise users. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=3>The joint 3Com &#150; RIM WLAN
solution will provide corporate and government organizations with the flexibility of a
session initiation protocol (SIP)-based BlackBerry handheld that is tied into their
existing PBX telephony. The solution will enable on-campus employees to use always-on
BlackBerry applications such as email, VoIP, browser and organizer in conjunction with the
BlackBerry platform&#146;s unique connectivity features including push-based services,
advanced security and back-end integration. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=3>The 3Com &#151; RIM alliance
demonstrates the power of standards by integrating advanced SIP standard-based products.
Together, the 3Com&reg; Convergence Applications Suite and the 802.11b-based BlackBerry
7270 deliver a unique mobility solution. The 3Com wireless local area network (LAN) switch
and RIM&#146;s BlackBerry Enterprise Server&#153; enhance security and facilitate faster
hand-offs, ensuring quality of service. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=3>&#147;The 3Com and Research In Motion
alliance is another signal that there is a growing need to address the mobility
requirements of on-premise workers or &#145;campus warriors&#146; inside an
enterprise,&#148; said Zeus Kerravala, vice president of enterprise infrastructure for The
Yankee Group. &#147;Instant access to your voice and data communications from one device
has gone from a &#145;nice to have&#146; to a &#145;must have&#146; and it has become
incumbent for enterprises who want their associates to be productive to find ways to use
this type of technology moving forward.&#148; </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=3>&#147;Leveraging both companies&#146;
respective strengths, the 3Com-Research In Motion alliance enables businesses to deploy
standards-based, world-class IP telephony and wireless solutions in order to provide their
campus employees with seamless access to time-sensitive information,&#148; said Dave
Hattey, 3Com vice president and general manager, enterprise solutions. &#147;Companies
today are under enormous pressure to lower costs and increase organizational
effectiveness. One of the most cost effective ways to do this is through our SIP
standards-based converged communications suite integrated with RIM&#146;s
enterprise-mobility communications solutions.&#148; </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=3>&#147;The BlackBerry 7270 and
BlackBerry Enterprise Server solution for WLAN networks and 3Com&#146;s IP telephony
network and WLAN switch will extend the BlackBerry experience to a new category of
enterprise users in corporate and government organizations,&#148; said Larry Conlee, COO
at Research In Motion. &#147;The benefits of always-on connectivity will become available
to on-campus employees through a cost-effective solution that can enhance communications,
collaboration and workflow.&#148; </FONT></P>

<H1 ALIGN=LEFT><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=3>Benefits of a 3Com-RIM
IP Mobility Solution </FONT></H1>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=3>The 3Com-RIM IP mobility solution is
being designed to enhance user productivity for employees at headquarters, branch office
locations and home offices and increase the overall organizational effectiveness of the
enterprise. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=3>The benefits to enterprises are: </FONT></P>
<ul>

<li>        Open standards and architecture.  The 3Com IP Mobility module is based on SIP, which significantly reduces the cost of
         owning a reliable, customizable next generation IP communications platform that enables employees to work more freely and
         productively.  3Com's new wireless switch conforms to IEEE 802.11 standards and the BlackBerry 7270 is based on IEEE 802.11
         standards for wireless and SIP for telephony application.  The BlackBerry platform also supports open industry standards
         such as Java;
<li>        Low cost of ownership.  The 3Com IP Mobility module supports a variety of investment and deployment strategies, including
         traditional PBX preservation or replacement, and use of standard computing platforms;
<li>        Increase user productivity.  The 3Com IP Mobility module allows "Campus Warrior" associates to have greater access to their
         voice and data communications resulting in improved productivity gains and higher organizational effectiveness; and
<li>        Increased wireless security.  The BlackBerry platform sets the standard for secure wireless data access with its advanced
         security architecture and support for Triple DES, AES and S/MIME.  Intelligent Wi-Fi(R)also helps communication using AAA
         servers reduce network bandwidth stress and allows for security profiling by user and group.  Rogue detection and isolation
         also help ensure only authorized users access the network.

[NYSE/TSX: NT] and Research In Motion (RIM) [Nasdaq: RIMM; TSX: RIM] today announced a
joint initiative aimed at delivering secure, full-featured, Session Initiation Protocol
(SIP)-enabled business communications over wireless local area networks (LAN). </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=3>As a first step, the companies are
focusing on providing interoperability and integration between RIM&#146;s BlackBerry&reg;
enterprise platform and Nortel&#146;s Multimedia Communications Server (MCS) 5100, a
critical component of Nortel&#146;s enterprise IP multimedia solution. This collaboration
will bring unique synergies for enterprise customers by joining Nortel&#146;s
industry-leading networking and multimedia capabilities and RIM&#146;s expertise in
wireless enterprise solutions. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=3>By integrating these systems,
enterprise customers will be able to use the new BlackBerry 7270&#153; to securely and
reliably access IP telephony, corporate e-mail and other business applications via the
wireless LAN. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=3>Nortel and RIM are demonstrating a
preview of the technology at VoiceCON in Orlando this week (Nortel booth #401). </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=3>&#147;In addition to supporting the
traditional mobile user that requires wide-area connectivity on a national or
international basis, many customers are looking for similar types of business solutions
for their on-campus employees so that productivity benefits can be extended throughout the
entire company. BlackBerry integration with Nortel&#146;s telephony network products will
help enterprise customers achieve that goal in a powerful and cost-effective manner,&#148;
said Larry Conlee, chief operating officer at Research In Motion. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=3>&#147;Together, Nortel and RIM plan
to take mobile communications to an entirely new level. Both companies have embraced
wireless standards and SIP in the development of enterprise solutions, paving the way for
the integration of our technologies and vision. Today&#146;s announcement of our efforts
to mobilize on-campus workers with profoundly powerful communications is an important
first step that will bring enhanced business capabilities to customers,&#148; said Malcolm
Collins, president, Enterprise Networks, Nortel. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=3>&#147;We look forward to building on
this momentum with further initiatives to enhance the human experience by providing a
consistent end-user experience regardless of location,&#148; Collins said. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=3>Nortel&#146;s MCS 5100 enables
businesses to augment existing voice and data infrastructures with advanced IP-based
capabilities and deliver a wide range of applications including voice, call management,
collaboration tools and personalization services. Enterprise MCS users will be able to
securely take their communications suite including telephony, e-mail, organizer, browser,
company directory and more with them as they roam their company&#146;s facilities. Nortel
plans to extend the powerful Presence and Instant Messaging capabilities of MCS across a
wide range of Blackberry handhelds, including the WLAN based 7270. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=3>The BlackBerry 7270 works in
conjunction with BlackBerry Enterprise Server v4.0 and BlackBerry Mobile Data Service,
providing secure, push-based integration with Microsoft&reg; Exchange and IBM Lotus&reg;
Domino&#153; as well as a robust wireless application platform for ISV&#146;s and
developers. The BlackBerry 7270 will operate on 802.11b networks and incorporates voice
and data capabilities. The BlackBerry 7270 supports IP telephony that essentially extends
desktop phone functionality to a BlackBerry wireless handheld, allowing the user to place
and receive calls on the go. It utilizes SIP-based call control to deliver standards-based
interoperability with corporate telephony equipment. </FONT></P>
