Too late. Microsoft has his man Elop running Nokia. The latter is going to use Windows 7 for their smart phone going forward.Could be a takeover target. One of their competitors could take them out and reduce the field of competitors.
Honestly, if Tony the Tory could not let the business friendly deals happen under his watch, it would be almost impossible to have the Pinko Kook, aka NDP to let RIMM a takeover target by anybody, be Chinese, Indians, even Americans.Hope Tony "deal killer" Clement doesn't see this. Hope Tony Clement (the little dictator) lose his seat in the election. If he does, maybe an Egyptian telecom company will offer him a job.
RIM had their chance. They laughed when Apple launched the iPhone. They continued to rest on their laurels. Once they realized their plight, it was too late. Far too late.It would be awful for Canada to lose RIM. All the Waterloo graduates will run south to seek their fortune. Maybe the Canadian government will bail them out like General Motors.
No offense, RIM gets what they deserve and then some.It would be awful for Canada to lose RIM.
Ouch, the best and the brightest would rather take worth-less USD than bubbly Loonie as take home pay.All the Waterloo graduates will run south to seek their fortune.
No chance since unlike the CAW, no politicians I could recall are doing RIM's bidding.Maybe the Canadian government will bail them out like General Motors.
Not going to be surprised one of the big six banks here would start to replace crackberry by Android, even iPhones for business use going forward.RIM had their chance.

Even the staunchest Blackberry users at my work said they're done with their handsets. Currently, looking at iPhones and Android.
Yup.Not going to be surprised one of the big six banks here would start to replace crackberry by Android, even iPhones for business use going forward.
Maybe the only crackberry users remaining would be those government workers.
LOL, no smartphones or tablets for me since I am naive to believe UBB is here to stay by gambling $$$ for hobbying in RCI.B and AT&T. :frusty:Yup.
I've seen many stories over the last two years of major banks switching to iPhone. No surprise, same thing with Android.
I have a Torch right now. I've had it for around 2 months now. I've had more problems with it than the year and a half with my iPhone 3GS.
Nokia is closing their 1,000 man development centre in Copenhagen.LOL, no smartphones or tablets for me since I am naive to believe UBB is here to stay by gambling $$$ for hobbying in RCI.B and AT&T. :frusty:
Plus those commodities remind me of gadget porn, i.e. making people hot and bothered to get one on hand, albeit short shelf life.
Meanwhile, still waiting to get the top of the line iPad 2 free by redeeming reward miles. Hee, hee, hee.
More to come in Helsinki. Stay tune.Nokia is closing their 1,000 man development centre in Copenhagen.
They will like go overseasMore to come in Helsinki. Stay tune.
BTW, maybe some of the 1000 get a job at Bang & Olufsen. No?
Dunno the Danish Krone is in bubbly level like the Loonie and Aussie compared to the Euro and USD.They will like go overseas
ROFLMAO, looks like those "patriotic" Canadian analysts covering RIMM admit they are wrong and throw the towels, albeit late compared to their American counterparts.Buyout of RIM is unlikely. HP already has WEBOS from Palm and I think all the OS players are set in stone. Like I said, no carrier wants to sell RIM phones as they have to share the Data Plan $$ with RIM as all data goes through RIMs infrastructure. That model is toast. So now.. they are left with discounting.
Actually it should be one of the leaders. :wink:Things started on their downward path when their leader decided he was more interested in becoming an NHL team owner.
Without respected leadership leading constant REAL innovation, this is what happens.
Well unless you can get something else for free that is better then you are being an idiot. I was playing with one on the weekend, and it is definitely a very nice piece. Get one for free.. I will pay you $100 to lose it lol...of course for what they are asking people to pay it is a complete rip.Actually it should be one of the leaders. :wink:
BTW, not going to get their crackberry playbook when I could get one for free.
I could get the iPad (1st gen) for free but like the playbook, no thank you. :thumb:Well unless you can get something else for free that is better then you are being an idiot.
