                                                              December 21, 2006

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

RESEARCH IN MOTION REPORTS PRELIMINARY THIRD QUARTER RESULTS

Waterloo, Ontario - Research In Motion Limited (RIM) (Nasdaq: RIMM; TSX: RIM),
a world leader in the mobile communications market, today reported preliminary
third quarter results for the three months ended December 2, 2006 (all figures
in U.S. dollars).

The results reported today are preliminary pending the restatement related to
RIM's historical non-cash charges associated with past option grants. As
disclosed previously, RIM is completing a management-initiated, voluntary
review of RIM's historical option granting practices. It is the Company's
belief that the impact of any restatement on GAAP and adjusted operating
results for fiscal 2007, including the third quarter, will be immaterial. RIM
will file final financial statements for the second and third quarters of
fiscal 2007 following the completion of the review, which is expected prior to
RIM's fiscal year end of March 3, 2007.

Revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2007 was $835.1 million, up 26.8% from
$658.5 million in the previous quarter and up 49% from $560.6 million in the
same quarter of last year. The revenue breakdown for the quarter was
approximately 75% for handhelds, 17% for service, 5% for software, and 3% for
other revenue. Approximately 875,000 BlackBerry subscriber accounts were added
in the quarter. At the end of the quarter, the total BlackBerry subscriber
account base was approximately 7 million. Revenue and subscriber account
additions will not be impacted by the restatement referenced above.

"We are extremely pleased with the strong revenue and subscriber account growth
achieved in the third quarter," said Jim Balsillie, Chairman and Co-CEO at RIM.
"New product launches during the past few months have exceeded our expectations
and we look forward to continuing this momentum into the new year."

Preliminary GAAP net income for the quarter was $176.0 million, or $0.93 per
share diluted. Excluding regular stock option expense of $3.6 million,
preliminary adjusted net income was $179.6 million, or $0.95 per share diluted.
The preliminary adjusted net income and preliminary adjusted net income per
share do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and therefore are
unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. The
adjusted measures should be considered in the context of RIM's preliminary GAAP
results.

Revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 ending March 3, 2007 is expected
to be in the range of $900-$940 million. Subscriber account additions in the
fourth quarter are expected to be in the range of 950,000-975,000. GAAP
earnings per share for the fourth quarter are expected to be in the range of
$0.92-$0.99 cents per share diluted. Adjusted earnings per share for the fourth
quarter, which excludes regular stock option expense of approximately $5
million, are forecast to be in the range of $0.95-$1.02 per share diluted.

The total of cash, cash equivalents, short-term and long-term investments was
$1.3 billion as at December 2, 2006, compared to $1.2 billion at the end of the
previous quarter, an increase of $155 million over the prior quarter. Cash was
provided by operating activities as well as issuance of share capital. These
were offset in part by capital expenditures.

                                                           ====================

Note: Preliminary adjusted net income and preliminary adjusted net income per
share do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and thus are not
comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Investors are
encouraged to consider this adjusted measure in the context of RIM's
preliminary GAAP results.

                                                               December 21, 2006

RIM Provides Status Update

Waterloo, Ontario - Research In Motion Limited (RIM) (Nasdaq: RIMM; TSX: RIM)
today provides this status update pursuant to the alternative information
guidelines of the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC). These guidelines
contemplate that the Company will normally provide bi-weekly updates on its
affairs until such time as the Company is current with its filing obligations
under Canadian securities laws. RIM today announced its preliminary operating
results for the third quarter of fiscal 2007 in a separate press release.

The Company's management-initiated, voluntary review of stock option grants is
ongoing. As previously disclosed, the Audit Committee of RIM's Board of
Directors has made a preliminary determination that a restatement of RIM's
historical financial statements will be required. The Company does not currently
anticipate a material adjustment to the preliminary second quarter operating
results reported on September 28, 2006, the preliminary operating results for
the third quarter of fiscal 2007 announced today, or to current or future
financial years' operating results as a result of the restatement.

As previously disclosed, the review of the Company's historical stock option
practices has not yet been concluded and the Company therefore notified the OSC
that it would not be in a position to file its restated historical financial
statements or its financial statements for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 on
or before December 17, 2006. As a result, pursuant to the management cease trade
order issued by the OSC on November 7, 2006, RIM provided an update to the OSC
on December 18, 2006 with respect to the status of the Company's continuous
disclosure obligations. Following submissions from the Company and staff of the
OSC, the OSC (by order dated December 18, 2006) continued the management cease
trade order in accordance with its terms, provided that the Company report to
the OSC on the status of its continuous disclosure obligations if the OSC has
not received all necessary Company filings by March 5, 2007.

The Company expects to file its financial statements for the second and third
quarters of fiscal 2007 and its restated historical financial statements prior
to its fiscal year end of March 3, 2007. In order to provide as much information
to shareholders as possible prior to the Company's financial statement and MD&A
filings and while its management-initiated, voluntary review is ongoing, the
Company also intends (on or prior to January 16, 2007) to disclose additional
financial information beyond the information reported in the announcements of
the preliminary operating results for the second and third quarters of fiscal
2007, including a narrative explanation of the Company's performance during
those quarters.
