the comments that John Chen made today shows that BlackBerry has a lot more chance to succeed than ever before. 80/20 vs 50/50 is a huge step.

80/20 vs 50/50 is a huge step.

He took a lot of flak for the 50/50 remark so it's very possible he simply revised it to 80/20. It's not like anyone can ever call him out on it. There's only going to be one iteration.

I'm 80% sure the share price will go down tomorrow. And, you can quote me on that right here.

50/50 chance to 80/20 chance...surely are statement of confidence..i dont think CEO will make a statement if he dont have any valid points to back him up..especially only weeks away before Q1 financial report release...

i think BB will record a profit this quarter, just because they are selling lot of assets they have...

I never take any account of statements of confidence from CEOs from any company.

Not looking good so far.

Bbuk,

I honestly think Google will be big in 10 years. Bbry and msft will be fighting. And apple a memory.

I am sorry but I think the above is "delusional" and I am far from being alone. While I think that Blackberry will be around in some form, it will not be competing with MS. Without handset sales, at the best BBRY will be hiding in a car dash. BBRY's best bet it to try to carve out some niche but fighting with MS and Windows OS will be a looser for them.

BlackBerry CEO sees company returning to profitability, prominence, WSJ says

BlackBerry CEO sees company cash flow positive or breakeven end of fiscal year

I think it is still clear that Chen is under committing, still, and plans on over delivering.

Would not be surprised that they are cash flow positive before then.

Mind you that is just me, and I am guilty of being one of the delusional devotees of this thread.

Greg, over the few years you periodically refer to people here as animals and labeling people as delusional and such. I am curious if you have a label for yourself?

Everyone ready for the 10:30 dip

ill applaud chen when the stock is at 15

From Chen speaking at the Code conference now.

Walt: Is BlackBerry going to make Android handsets?

Chen: If there's enough money on the table. I can't comment on that right now.

An android with the bb10 front end would be killer. It might even motivate people to get a bb10 phone.

Fair enough. I'll be applauding all the way to $15.

I think I put rational in my post which you didn't bother quoting. Convenient...

OK, give us your rational.

I guess ill start to raise my hands around 10 and start applauding at 11 but actually wont say chen has turned the ship around until we are steady at 15

Watch for the rush.

When this thing starts to move, it will do it in a mean way.

Big words from Chen. Quite comforting. Also some big words from Eddy Cue at Apple. Looks like BlackBerry is going to focus on enterprise where it can make some money, while keeping a nice stream of phones for the faithful and the security focused. I'm pretty confident about my share position.

Now if Apple really does have its strongest pipeline of products in 25 years coming in 2014, then we are in for a tech shake up. That will be fun to watch. I don't think it will be enterprise and I don't think the iphone will get any stronger against bb10. But I suspect Samsung is freaking out today.

Most CEO's are more PR people these days.... and PR people are taught to SPIN. The Q1 report will not conflict what he said.... he has another three quarter to get back to break even.

Apple resting on its laurels:

"We don’t try to do too many things. We want to do a few really incredible things"

Ya, since 2007 what have they done. An iTouch. An iTouch with a phone to it. A bigger iPad. And their computers that get refreshed.

Yawn ..... This is why I say that Apple is going to be nothing in 10 years.
