And corporately we are investing in a custom Blackberry Application so I'd say we are not looking to leave BlackBerry any time soon.
I suspect that businesses that provide devices to their staff will continue to offer BlackBerry's. BYOD firms will adopt a more open stance

Please Mike and Jim!!! Don't let RIM disappear!!!09-18-11 12:25 PMLike 0 -
- Staying.
My personal opinion is when you start to see the first large corporate data breaches from companies allowing personal phones in, you'll see people turn to RIM. Right now it's all good and fine until -- . I run a network and I'd no sooner let employees bring in their infested PCs than I'd eat glass. We are in the early stages with phones. Think.. the launch of Windows 95.
Give it a couple of years.09-18-11 12:35 PMLike 0 - I'll go somewhere else when there's something else better. So, no, I'm not going anywhere, at least not for the foreseeable future.

But all I do is message, browse and use apps that are available to all platforms. And I like typing on "clicky" keys.

I've only recently tried my hand with an Iphone 4 and, while I enjoyed the experience, it was no Blackberry. I swapped that iphone for the Bold 9930 and am happier than ever.
Safe to say I will be sticking with Blackberry.

- I for one don't plan on leaving anytime soon, my 9650 does exactly what I bought the phone for...make phone calls, manage all my contacts and email, nothing out there does it better for me !

Even then, only the keyboard came close to emulating a Blackberry. It used to have a push email feature (not sure if it still does since Nokia sold their push technology) and it had excellent Microsoft Exchange compatibility. There is a new one, the E6, but it has been getting medicore reviews.09-18-11 10:02 PMLike 0

Still keeping my eye on RIM. Not satisfied with the current slate, but I am an optimist. Plus, everyone here is swearing by the yet-unseen QNX, so I am eager to see what RIM pulls off.09-18-11 10:09 PMLike 0 -
QNX is probably 1 year away for ME to have on a device since I will be waiting for a Bold 9900 replacement device.09-18-11 10:37 PMLike 0 -

- "business news regarding rim"
RIM posted $419 million net income for the quarter and increased subscribers to 70 million. Sales were at the lower end of guidance. For any other company that would have been fantastic. For RIM it just means they're doing ok (though many financial analysts wouldn't say that - there's a faint smell of Apple on the wind).
The negativity arose from their sales being down on previous quarters. But bearing in mind they hadn't released a new phone for a year this is hardly a surprise.
Problem is there are still a lot of people buying RIM on a whim hoping to cash in. This is dumb. They are simply providing the short sellers with vast profits. Unless you're a speculator who knows what they're doing RIM is a stock that should be avoided (as should any mobile tech company - altogether too volatile).
BlackBerrys are still the most secure and efficient way to communicate via a PDA. As long as that remains true the company will be ok. In other words, you can safely ignore the stock price.09-19-11 11:33 AMLike 0 - "business news regarding rim"

Remember you get what you pay for. Free investing advice is one of them.
In the stock market there is a buyer for every seller. Short sellers borrow stock from owners of stock to make the trade. Something to think about09-19-11 11:56 AMLike 0 - Thanks for the correction. I go back as far as PDAs (further to be honest) and occasionally slip into using the term.
I hope you'll forgive me for pointing this out, but you just delivered a certain amount of free advice yourself.
