Raw meat is still eaten today, your cannibal sterotype is retarded. As for taking their time to be very awesome, time is not exactly on RIMMs side. It's about playing their cards correctly. The damage has been done on resting their laurels. All we can do is wish them the best.

i really hate you!! you're really annoying! and about your question on the last BB post! let me ask you this... can you play temple run on all android devices? or atleast without hanging? NO!

really ? how did you know that?

so do i, yes i can, even a fifty bucks droid

le me ask you, what phone are you using now ? bold 9900 ? try to open browser and scroll down until it

no blackberry doesn't play nice, they steal the "rubber-band" effect from ios, like samsung does, but they don't get sued because they're not seen as a threat for apple because RIm has only 4.8% of market share worldwide,

BUT you can't play temple run on BB can you ?

blackberry will never get sued because they're not seen as a threat for competitor, even if they created a phone that looks similiar to the iPhone! (bb 10 proto for developer)

Well really no one knows what for Samsung is paying M$ as when Court wanted (in relation to what samsung was asking for from apple for licensing fees) the licensing deals to be kept on table then both M$ and IBM were running to court not to allow it in name of NDA/NDC/Business secret ... some say that M$ says this "Linux is infringing on patents" but then licenses them out for peanuts. If M$ told what patents Linux is infringing upon perhaps they could lose lot of money ... It's all shady deals when it comes to cros licensing. It's like kissing each other's butt to keep each other happy and disallowing new player in market. This is all where these sick patent systems is taking us to.
