Today, RIM announced the finalists of its Wireless Achievement Awards. The winners in all four categories (attendee choice, business impact, and innovation in the public and private sectors) will be announced on May 4th at BlackBerry World in Orlando.

The Wireless Achievement Awards are presented to customers who are doing business in new and better ways with game-changing BlackBerry deployments. These high achievers are in a category of their own for their vision, efforts and most of all, their awe-inspiring achievements. They partner with app development partners to mobilize corporate systems that were once only available by sitting at a desk. They increase performance, make a difference to the bottom line and simplify life for their employees.

This year’s finalists span a range of industries from travel to automotive to paint to healthcare to public safety. You can check out brief summaries of all finalists in this Inside BlackBerry for Business blog post: http://bizblog.blackberry.com/2011/04/wireless-achievement-awards-finalists/.
