I seem to remember that RIM wrote a good chunk of Gtalk for the Blackberry. Of course, I could be completely wrong. I'm not sure about that Steve.

Cordial relationship, tactical application interoperability, use of public APIs, all yes... but nothing more at least for now. Not even a common or coordinated assault on common enemies like MSFT or NOK. They are both vying for a proprietary lock on overlapping user bases.

They had offices in Toronto (Markham) before that, may still have. They also have a few employees here in Ottawa after their acquisition of Adscape but they're being asked to move I believe.
