- thats what I was waiting for. Closer to 10 dollars a share I was going to buy about 500 or so... But I may have missed the chance... I'll be keeping an eye on it.05-21-12 11:16 PMLike 0
- Same here, although I really think we have some time.. It should go up and down until the release of BB10.. I mean it was at 11.80 and then dropped down to a little less than 11 in just a day so it has been going kinda nuts. I still believe it will go down closer to $10 before BB10 and that's when I'll be investing05-21-12 11:21 PMLike 0
- I've been watching for a year. Was waiting for $10. A month ago I dropped my buy to $7. Now I'm out. "True value" today is about $5 - the cash reserve. Reserves are going fast. They can't sell the patents or they would be finished - next year patents will lose their value. The real estate is under water. Stock will be at $3 this time next year. Buy then & wait for the sales.05-22-12 01:01 AMLike 0

Also, if you plan buying, just visit the thread linked in my signature05-22-12 02:15 AMLike 0 - I just read the dead cat bounce article. I'm no stock market pro, but I do not fully agree with it. They didn't factor in bb10 or what's in the REAL future for RIM. If you're part of CB and follow what's going on, I would think buying stock would be a good idea. I think the author of the article should get to know RIM better.05-22-12 07:20 AMLike 0

they started making different hardware choices...
DevAlpha looks like a pretty different hardware choice by RIM from their traditional functions
RIM today is very different from RIM in 2008, management has changed, internal focus has changed, and they actually have some people who are software first people in management positions, so to count RIM out based on their past and dismissing that Apple made a turn around isn't really fair to RIM,
Do I think they'll hit Apple like stock prices? probably not unless they start earning $300 per share05-22-12 01:31 PMLike 0 -

RIM isn't going into a totally new business at all. They are still making smartphones (just better ones this time around), and they are still competing against the same very strong, well established competitors.
I'm not saying RIM can't turn this around. That's not my point. It just that any comparison to Apple to me makes no sense. The iPod and iTMS are what saved Apple, not the Mac.
To make this clear: Apple did not save themselves by just making better versions of what they were already making. RIM is trying to save themselves by making a better version of what they were already making (smartphones). Huge difference. If RIM succeeds, it will be a totally different story from Apple.Last edited by app_Developer; 05-22-12 at 01:39 PM.

- bb10 isn't going to help RIM for over a year at the earliest. bb10 is going to be a long slow adoption, and that's assuming it actually takes off, the initial hardcore fans won't have a huge bearing on stock price or overall outlook. they have many years of hard work ahead of them to try to gain any new subscribers from other platforms. i would personally wait for the stock to tank AFTER bb10 launch.05-22-12 01:42 PMLike 0
- sleepngbearRetired ModeratorBut it's not the Mac or OS X that turned Apple around. Their "different hardware choices" in this case was to branch out into a completely new business where the competition was very, very weak. The went into a completely new field (MP3 players) where Microsoft wasn't even a player.
