- I for one would love them to make an android phone for consumers. Not because i will use it but because i think if they ever want to be successful in the consumer markets again they will need to. Don't get me wrong ill always use bb10 but i can see a blackberry android phone doing pretty well. The way i see it happening is that blackberry android will include all the goodies that they want to release for android and ios like Hub for free on these devices. Great marketing 'Dont want to pay a subscription fee for all our productivity suite then buy a blackberry android'.03-05-15 11:47 AMLike 6
- OT: Kinda....The Android rumor is very intriguing to say the least. With the entry of Google into the wireless service space, some possibilities may exist. With Hypervisor capability of QNX and the recent support of announcement of BES 12 for Android for Work , it just may allow future releases of BB10 to host Android virtually, hence allowing it to connect to Google Play.?? Just not sure how this would sound to the OHA agreement, but with Google owning their own wireless space maybe they can skirt around without violating the agreement.
I'm sure would love to hear comments from people in the know about the OHA alliance, etc.etc.
Here's Google announcement this morning.

- I think the BlackBerry Android thing is about as good an idea as the dummy tablet idea that circulated a while ago. I struggle to see why someone who didn't want a BlackBerry BlackBerry would go and buy Android BlackBerry - I just don't see it. Why wouldn't they just buy a Samsung?

Sounds like a smart move. But the day when BlackBerry makes the first Android phones the tiny little flame of life in the BB10 ecosystem will stop burning.
Right now I have still the hope they will stabilze the marketshare with innovative devices or even find a partner, maybe Samsung using BB10 instead of Tizen or something like that. There is still life in the ecosystem. A BlackBerry Android phone would kill it, because it would be the final signal of a complete transition to Android.
You will not have the choice to 'allways use bb10' anymore, if this happens.03-05-15 12:18 PMLike 8 - I think the BlackBerry Android thing is about as good an idea as the dummy tablet idea that circulated a while ago.

Personal preference. Some might prefer BlackBerry's hardware, but (for some reason?!) prefer the Android OS.

Now sometime along another BB10 user wants to use Android apps from Google Play etc and unfortunately not available at Amazon. So what does he do. Buy Android for BB10 in the AppWorld. Just like buying an app..or using something like SNAP... Maybe this is the plan...I said maybe.
This would be akin to the pc world, where you buy a pc loaded with Windows by default ( mostly )and then buy VMware on the side so you can play with other stuff.
It's all about choices and agreements..

So....let's just go with the rumour of a blackberry employee running Android on a Passport. Rumours is all then I take back the 'fact' piece.03-05-15 01:28 PMLike 0

- And back to the Health Care Front.
Did you know that the recent Partnership between Nanthealth and Allscripts, that will bring precision medicine in the near future was endorsed by Obama himself during the State of the Union Speech.
Check out this article about the Partnership.
EMR partnership ties mHealth into precision medicine
The partnership between NantHealth and Allscripts, announced March 2, pushes the needle on two fronts. As envisioned, it would give clinicians access to individual genomic (DNA) and transcriptome (RNA) data at the point of care, enabling them to create a specific care plan for each cancer patient; second, it would enable clinicians to gather data from medical devices, both for population health purposes and to monitor patients at home.
The project marries mHealth to so-called precision medicine, a high-tech concept brought into the mainstream by President Barack Obama during his recent State of the Union Address. While much of the talk had been focused around the use of technology to gather and collate genetic data from a patient, projects like the NantHealth/Allscripts collaboration are the first to illustrate how mHealth can be used to connect patients to individual care protocols and give clinicians a platform to manage individual patients around-the-clock and reach large groups of people with similar care coordination needs.....
And the State of the Union Speech...back in January.
"Tonight, I'm launching a new precision medicine Initiative to bring us closer to curing diseases like cancer and diabetes – and to give all of us access to the personalized information we need to keep ourselves and our families healthier," he told the nation earlier this week.
And that was it. Nothing more on the topic, at least for now.
Healthcare leaders jumped on those scant few words and applauded the President for his support of what's also been called "personalized medicine," and what's been defined so far as the mapping of the individual human DNA. The human genome project, funded by the government and completed in 2003, identified about 20,500 human genes.

One thing I've found with bbry though, it usually takes a day or two for people to fully process an announcement and the stock to react accordingly. Unless it's negative news, then it tanks immediately lol
Posted via CB1003-05-15 02:37 PMLike 4 - Superfly_FRRetired ModeratorWe had downtrend on low volume announcing a bad next day...
Now the patterns seems to be 'we try to push down' 'Shat, fails wtf ? ' then getting a bit nervous... then a good next day...
Who said ? Me
Backed with ? Nothing ... err... guts feelings 100% !

"Hello Fawcett (Morgan Stanley) , Bob Tinker (Ceo) Mobile Iron here... MOBL stock has been tanking badly!... and our prospects look very dim.. BlackBerry is kicking our ***! ...
I don't need to tell you how your firm's investment in our firm is looking, do I ?...
I think a Morgan Stanley "research update" is timely, don't you? "
Day end next day.. ceo Mobile Iron call to Morgan Stanley :
" FAWCETT...stock up 4 percent today!"....don't you just love win-win relationships ",
... they both laugh....

CNN appears to have been pretty sneaky here...
Unless I am completely out to lunch, this interview is actually an edited version of the original December 17, 2014 interview that they had done when the Classic came out. They simply inserted some Leap images to make it appear more current or even refer to this latest model, as opposed to the Classic.
Original interview here: Blackberry is going back to its roots - CNN Video
Anecdotal stuff but CNN exhibiting some pretty lax ethical and journalistic standards, if you ask me. But should we be surprised...
