Having worked in management myself in several touch companies, and having worked closely with RIM now over the last year, I disagree that they are "only doing this to be paid".
Work for wage employees were mostly let go during RIM lay-off sessions. And every person I've worked with at RIM from VP's to Directors to Managers to Contractors have all gone above and beyond their jobs to provide stellar service and support.
Maybe in your line of work there is no passion left - any of these guys could have left RIM for much higher paying work in oil and gas. :). They stayed because they care. I'm sure there are bad apples, and RIM has a checkered past, but they have a lot of awesome people who care.
Shout outs to Larry, Tim, Eduardo, Alec, Froggy, and the hundreds of others at RIM who have stepped up to ensure BB10 really shines.

Speaking of which, roverton what's your twitter handle? Mines #kerm_ed (original - I know) and I'm always looking for interesting people to follow.
Nvm, found ya on the link above!
In regards to Alec, I've had him helping me build apps while inbetween flights and when I had concerns about some changes for developers he set aside time to call me to chat about them. I've also talked to him plenty via email helping find contacts in RIM for new developers to get test equipment and info.
His support via twitter is only the tip of the iceberg.
The one user above is choosing to be closed to what these guys are doing and trying to speak on a subject they don't know anything about. Not sure how much time to invest in that kind of conversation - I think they had good intentions (read: old frustrations) but like anything in life - you only get out of something what you put in.
