RIM is Suddenly Very Interested in Lock Screen Widgets

We heard some rumblings at BlackBerry World that RIM was working with Microsoft to bake Bing directly into the BlackBerry OS and lock screen though only a few concepts were shown. In RIM’s latest market research survey they sent me this week they definitely seem to be going further or at least contemplating it. In the survey they were asking if you would want to see your RSS feeds, messages and more on your homescreen. They even had a bunch of mock ups of what they are considering shown below:
