I believe it Foxconn will make units just for the Asian market. Though the rumor is Blackberry and hardware maker in Canada may be going through a divorce.

Oh no. Some people get will never again buy a BB device.

Nope, just like everything else, those who screamed the loudest about Foxconn will rationalize.

I'm truly looking forward to it LOL.

As soon as I saw the thread title I knew what would be inside. Sure enough it only took three posts to get there. So predictable. Funny though.

So Blackberry will become Foxconn's most important partner?

[Tre Lawrence]

So predictable.

LOL. The move or the post defending the move?

The irony. Truly hilarious.

Does Foxconn rule the world?

The beatings will continue until morale improves.

[AnimalPak200]

Let's just hope they don't tell the workers whether they are making a BlackBerry or an iPhone... they're already suicidal enough.

LOL... just kidding, just kidding... totally inappropriate, although apparently no one *really* actually cares.

Should be a hoot.

Why welp? Everyone here is so negative it's embarrassing.

[BoldPreza]

I really don't know where to stand on this. I know it's necessary for costs but at the same time this company has one of the most ragged reputations.

Mind you other companies not just apple use them and have much less issues. But still so many issues!

Prior to the Z5 leak I posted that BB needed a Lumia 520 clone and should be manufacturing in Indonesia which maybe was its best market. I would like them to do the same for India .

I saw the news on my twitter and was like "cue the 180 and denials that anything bad was ever said about Foxconn/suddenly Foxconn is a-OK or 'BB probably made them pinky swear to only have adults build the BB stuff Apple didn't Apple sux!!!1!1!1!!11!1!!1!"

I can not wait to read how the "APPLE HAS BLOOD ON ITS HANDS BB WOULD NEVER USE FOXCONN" crew is going to respond to this.

Should be comedy gold.

Nothing negative here. Just ironic because whenever topics touch on Apple around here, inevitably some will mention how using Foxconn is like using cheap slave labour only to increase profits, and how BlackBerry would never do such a thing.

welp because there were quite a few people who claimed that BB is done with hardware. welp = end of discussion. You misunderstood what it meant.

[BlackBerry Guy]

Whatever one 's opinion on Foxconn may be, they are well experienced in mobile and consumer electronics manufacturing, and that can only help BlackBerry.

...except when Apple uses them. Then they are teh evil!

[si001]

Its all about lowering the costs now I guess, lets hope the phone quality wont take a hit.

[heymaggie]

This is actually a long-term breakup strategy. Foxconn will eventually buy the Blackberry smartphone business along with the name. This will address the initial problems that Canadians will have with the ownership of Blackberry. By the time the actual sale happens, Blackberry smartphones will be made by Foxconn anyway.

It's exactly what IBM did with Lenovo with the Thinkpad.

[qbnkelt]

wait...where are the moral crusaders who were SO against Foxconn????

Where is their rage??? Their moral compass suddenly got stuck????

[badiyee]

cue the realists and the 'i-was-rightwrong-ist' posters. LULZ

Let's see if you can find blood on BlackBerry's hands. The plant, if its correct will be at Yogyakarta, Indonesia. To be precise, it is a brand new plant, opening in 2014. So no blood yet eh?
