I must appologize...I had lost faith in RIM for about five minutes but...Well Not going to lie... I'm anticipating this more than a key-lime pie nexus device, Sixth iteration of an iPhone, and anything windows related...RIM I hope you can dodge these knives being tossed at you... To be honest you got a lot of ground work to do and this time take your time....Damn, I'm stating this like an actual RIM representative will read this. lol

So a while ago, me and my friend decided to get a new phone. I went for the Htc Desire, my friend instead wanted the BB Torch 9800. And so it went...
Well at first look the BB felt more premium, bisness-look, cool-slide-ing-keyboard.
Now...well, now its completely different story, with my Desire I can navigate the web very fast, skype, text with Swype, e-mails... lots of games and apps avaible. First i was angry for picking up the Desire, but boy, now im more than happy. It may be a 2 year-old device but trust me it keeps rocking. So to make my point: BB needs to keep up with the technology, and deliver all the goodies or it life isn't long...

Mformation Technologies will receive $147.2 million from RIM after a Federal Court in San Francisco ruled... RIM has been in very big troubles none stop.

Alright - as I just cannot help myself, I have to take the other side of the argument....

What if RIM isn't done? What if BB10 is worth the wait? What if the still large CrackBerry crowd comes out strong for BB10 after skipping BB07 (which we all know truly isn't competitive against other OS' out today)?

They have large cash on hand, still strong subscriber base, a huge overseas presence, and a still heavy business and government base that refuses to leave the secure RIM servers, who are again pumping money into BB every month. And, yes, the advantages of using the same basic design on phones is that their R&D has been extremely low except for their BB10/ Playbook projects.

Yes, their new sales are in the tank, they have no Cloud services to speak of, designers are more excited for WP8 than BB10. Okay, so maybe their stock and investors are tanking, and unlike Nokia they have no one to share the lose. And okay, iOS, Jellybean, and WP 8 are all going to have huge jumps on the new BlackBerry OS. And come to think of it, RIM hasn't knocked it out of park with hardware, and also is facing backlash from the carriers over their extra charges for their secure data plans, and are also not being pushed anymore than WP, and......

Wait!! I was supposed to be defending them!!!!

I AM SO STUPID!!! DARN IT, DARN IT, DARN IT!!!!

The thing is, they're not doing much things to improve, they keep doing the same old business that apple and google took from them with innovation... and I agree maybe a complete new board of directors would help, maybe releasing less expensive and atractive phones would help a lot too... but no, they're just in denial, so maybe BB will mean bye bye in a near future...

is seriously doubt bb10 will have anything better to offer that iOS 6, Jelly Bean, or WP8 won't have all together. Just sell yourself to somebody instead of pushing back the release of bb10

Just adopt WP8!
