Nov 2 (Reuters) - AT&T Inc (N:T) T.N said on Monday it would
offer BlackBerry Ltd's BB.TO new Android-powered smartphone in
its retail stores in the United States and online from Friday.
AT&T said it would be the first U.S. carrier to offer the
BlackBerry Priv, powered by Google's GOOGL.O Android mobile
platform. urn:newsml:reuters.com:*:nPn1pS4d5
Waterloo, Ontario-based BlackBerry's move to launch an
Android phone marks a shift away from its own BlackBerry 10
platform, which failed to regain market share ceded to Apple
Inc's AAPL.O iPhone and a slew of Android-powered devices.
BlackBerry also closed on Monday the acquisition of rival
mobile software provider Good Technology Corp, which it bought
for $425 million to boost its ability to help corporate clients
manage smartphones running on different operating systems.

BlackBerry's shares were up 1.8 percent at C$9.70 in
afternoon trading in Toronto.
