Well RIM have refused to co-operate with requests twice now - so you can understand why the government is getting peeved with them.
If the Government in the US can access Blackberry messages when it wants I dont think that telling other governments around the globe that they cant is really sustainable in the long term.
Given the alternatives for secure communications that governments cannot readily access I really cannot see why RIM are so adamant about not allowing the same sort of access to their system as every other manufacturer.
