FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Indosat and Nokia Launch BlackBerry Connect with the Nokia 9300 smartphone and
Nokia 9500 Communicator in Indonesia

Jakarta, Indonesia and Waterloo, ON - Indosat (JSX:ISAT; NYSE:IIT), Nokia
(NYSE: NOK) and Research In Motion (RIM) (Nasdaq: RIMM; TSX: RIM) today
introduced BlackBerry(R) Connect(TM) for the Nokia 9300 smartphone and Nokia
9500 Communicator to Indosat customers in Indonesia.

RIM's BlackBerry Connect licensing program allows users of the Nokia 9300 and
Nokia 9500 to connect to proven and popular BlackBerry services while
maintaining the existing Nokia device capabilities. BlackBerry provides an
efficient and reliable communications platform that can automatically deliver
email to the Nokia devices with support for attachment viewing as well remote
address lookup and up-to-date calendar information.

"Adding BlackBerry connectivity to Nokia's high-end enterprise devices
increases customer choices," commented Wahyu Wijayadi, Director of Corporate
Market at PT Indosat. "The `push' based BlackBerry technology supported by
Indosat's strong signal, comprehensive national network and roaming capability
will enable Matrix's users to access their email using the Nokia 9300 and Nokia
9500."

"The growth in the demand for mobility solutions has substantially expanded
over the last year, driven by the fact that many of the Indonesia workforces
are now mobile. Mobility has emerged as a priority investment area for business
people and we believe that the form factor of the Nokia 9300 smartphone and
Nokia 9500 Communicator with their large color screens, straightforward menu
navigation and integrated QWERTY keyboards, coupled with BlackBerry service,
makes them ideal handsets for mobile connectivity and email," added Hasan Aula,
General Manager Mobile Phones at Nokia Indonesia.

"We are pleased to work with Indosat to expand its BlackBerry portfolio in
Indonesia. Customers around the world continue to choose BlackBerry for its
unique architecture and its ability to keep mobile professionals connected to
important communications and information," said Norm Lo, Vice President, Asia
Pacific at Research In Motion. "BlackBerry Connect allows Indosat's customers
to leverage the BlackBerry architecture and infrastructure while also taking
advantage of the robust features available on the Nokia 9300 and Nokia 9500
devices."
