| |  Is RIM feeling the heat
Has anyone else who has left RIM get an email from them wanting you to take a 30 minutes survey as to why you left, and so fourth? I got one the other day, filled it. In the email they said they wanted the survey to be completed so they could figure out why so many are leaving RIM for other phones.

That's pretty standard practice for any company. If you switch carriers or you stop using an online service, they often want you to fill out a survey.

I have gone from Palm to BB left BB and came back and never got a survey before. It was very detailed.

It is pretty standard. I got one from Palm and HTC. Actually, HTC followed up the survey with a personal phone call as to why I discontinued using their products. I wanted to tell the guy to leave me alone I have a BB now that means I'm too busy too talk. Lol.

That's why they are rushing to slap some lipstick on their OS and call it OS6. What happened to 5.1, 5.2, etc.?

RIM's not feeling any heat. If anything, it's Palm.
OS6 looks promising.

OS6 is a rip off of WebOS.
I suppose when you can't do it yourself, just rip off the competition, eh RIM?

Well with Android coming out hot and heavy most are trying to get the "edge" in on the competition. However I do feel RIM will have some sales competition with the Android OS, at least with the younger crowd.

It is gorgeous, and it's so much better than the crap RIM refers to as their OS.

Statistics show that you have a 75% chance of singing a different tune after a few months.
