I'm sorry if I offend anyone....

As this is a thread about BBRY/BB shares, I find it odd that BB enthusiasts are already dissing this new rumored Android device. Blackberry doesn't need to please the 1% marketshare, they need to sell phones to the masses! I get that BB10 may be a better OS but come on, let's get real... From a business standpoint, from a SP standpoint, we need this phone and it needs to do well!
I use a Nexus 5 with pure Android and have none of the issues people are talking about here... Most problems come with other UI's running on top from Samsung, LG etc...
Most people don't know about all the great features of BB10 so they are not gonna miss anything with a slider/android device... But they may buy the phone for Google services and KB...

As an investor and long time supporter I agree...so long as the BB10 faithful still have the ability to purchase pure BB10 OS devices, which I'm sure they (we) will have.

more class action lawsuits?

Ryan & Maniskas, LLP Announces Class Action Lawsuit Against MobileIron, Inc. - MarketWatch

Ryan & Maniskas, LLP Announces Class Action Lawsuit Against MobileIron, Inc.

Published: Aug 17, 2015 7:00 p.m. ET

WAYNE, Pa., Aug. 17, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Ryan & Maniskas, LLP announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Santa Clara on behalf of purchasers of common stock of MobileIron, Inc. ("MobileIron" or the "Company") MOBL, -3.84% who purchased MobileIron securities pursuant to the company's Registration Statement and Prospectus issued in connection with its initial public offering ("IPO") on June 12, 2014.

MoblieIron shareholders may move the Court for appointment as a lead plaintiff of the Class. If you purchased shares of MDC and would like to learn more about these claims or if you wish to discuss these matters and have any questions concerning this announcement or your rights, contact Richard A. Maniskas, Esquire toll-free at (877) 316-3218 or to sign up online, visit: MobileIron, Inc. (NASDAQ: MOBL) | Ryan and Maniskas LLP.

According to the complaint, MobileIron officials deceived the investing public and caused the price of its securities to be sold at artificially inflated prices. Specifically, MobileIron's Registration Statement omitted material information that was required to be disclosed�namely, that the company had recently been hacked and that its platform was vulnerable to security bugs. MobileIron went public on June 12, 2014, at $9.00 per share, and quickly traded up to close its first day of public trading at $11.02 per share. The following day, online insurance news journal PostOnline.co.uk published a story detailing that MobileIron's customer, Aviva plc, had its employees' mobile devices hacked. MobileIron was quoted as downplaying the event as an isolated incident.

Then, on June 23, 2014, a news article published by TheRegister.co.uk stated that on May 20, 2014, a hacker compromised the MobileIron administrative server and performed a "full wipe" of many of the mobile devices used by Aviva personnel. An Aviva employee revealed in the article that the breach caused the company millions in damages. In the wake of the incident, Aviva moved its impacted personnel onto a Blackberry service and entered discussions with MobileIron's reseller Esselar to cancel their contract. Despite the fact that the breach occurred weeks before MobileIron's IPO, the Offering Materials failed to disclose the breach, Aviva moving to Blackberry's services, and the likely impact that the publication of the breach would have on MobileIron's ability to secure contracts with large customers and keep customers on its perpetual licensing revenue model.

On April 22, 2015, MobileIron issued a press release announcing an inability to close multiple large deals from North American customers and a large shift by customers to its monthly subscription model, which resulted in lower billings and revenue. On the same day, the company issued another press release stating that its Chief Financial Officer was resigning. On this news, MobileIron stock fell $2.39 per share, or over 25%.

If you are a member of the class, you may request that the Court appoint you as lead plaintiff of the class. A lead plaintiff is a representative party that acts on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. In order to be appointed lead plaintiff, the Court must determine that the class member's claim is typical of the claims of other class members, and that the class member will adequately represent the class. Under certain circumstances, one or more class members may together serve as "lead plaintiff." Your ability to share in any recovery is not, however, affected by the decision whether or not to serve as a lead plaintiff. You may retain Ryan & Maniskas, LLP or other counsel of your choice, to serve as your counsel in this action.

Ryan & Maniskas, LLP is a national shareholder litigation firm. Ryan & Maniskas, LLP is devoted to protecting the interests of individual and institutional investors in shareholder actions in state and federal courts nationwide.

I agree with you 100%. If Blackberry can make hardware for BB10, Android and even Windows Mobile, then why not? There's something for everyone. I think it's a great idea, but I'll choose what impresses and accommodates me the most.

remember when JC first came on board... and mentioned how the company was spending over a Billion PER QUARTER.....
you think that was all to R&D, software, payroll, etc?


trying or choosing to spend on Marketing right now would have made those death bed rumours come true, and there would be no BB today.


marketing objective for BB right now would be like pissing in the wind.... jmo

I agree. BlackBerry spent a lot on BB10, from acquisitions to actual R&D, to manufacturing. Frankly, after the PlayBook "with no email" fiasco, BB10 never had a chance with a new phone. BlackBerry would've needed Samsung's or Apple's marketing budget just to repair the brand. The market never gave BlackBerry or BB10 a chance.

To answer Hende Nicolas' Henry Ford quote, today, BlackBerry would probably have to go back to 2012 levels of R&D just to revive BB10 and play catch up again. BlackBerry would have to upgrade Cascades to Qt5.x just to get BB10 back on a current and supported version of Qt and to get up to the level of Qt currently supported by QNX Car2. Cross-platform development tools such as Unity (Gameloft games) and others will have to be updated to current version levels and everything has to be debugged as well. Then they would have to restart developer relations since all existing native apps will probably no longer work or have to be tweaked to work on the updated platforms. Oh, and because this is BlackBerry, time and money will have to be spent re-certifying the new OS with all the various governments. Note too that the certification costs are incurred with EACH MAJOR OS revision that i don't think any other manufacturer routinely incurs! That is a lot of money that has to be spent BEFORE attempting to relaunch BB10 with a marketing program. It would be highly doubtful that 3rd party developers take time and money back porting apps and games to unsupported platforms such as Qt4.x or the version of Unity that BB10 currently supports.

So yes, I believe in BlackBerry's case, BlackBerry is saving a ton of money not promoting BB10 phones. I'm not happy with it, but I'm okay with it because of their current situation and recent past.

No offense taken here. But, until we see and experience it, wouldn't the "Blackberry Experience" UI just be another add-on UI like Samsung's and LG's? Many of the die-hard BlackBerry enthusiasts also place high value on consumer privacy which to date has not been addressed by anyone talking about Android or Google Play. So what about security if our Android based BlackBerries start sending who knows what to Google and others that we don't know or authorize?

BB10 doesn't need an antivirus app, but BlackBerry and Trend Micro scan all the apps ahead of time for us. Does Android or Google do that? How about the major exploits that have been in the news in the past two weeks alone? Stagefright with a patch that may not work? Why do we want to be exposed to that?

Yes, the 8x% of Android users may look at the slider, but what do you want to bet that we'll be quickly be hit over the head with "thought I wanted a PKB, but I was wrong RIP BlackBerry." or "BlackBerry is **** because I cant root it!" Or "I can't load Cyanogenmod on it." or "Too little too late?"

If the slider brings a recovery that can then be channeled back into real BB10 development great. I'm all for it. If not, I'll gladly stay under my rock that is BB10.

OT ALERT !!

Sorry for the delay, I have been following this thread but not at home to answer questions on my PC.

Whether you are invested in BBRY or HALO, these stocks are down on very light, summertime volumes now, and in both cases, look very cheap in here. HALO is trading near its base of $ 19.00/shr and about to close above its 3-ema on excellent news in their recent Q. Look at how light the volumes are, each stock moves several cents on a buy/sell, a great time to load up and wait for September. For HALO $ 19.00 looks like the base for this sell-off with the IBB Index starting to turn up again today. I like how BBRY is holding $ 7.50/shr, it drops back and spends the balance of the day regaining its moderate loss. I will be fully invested before the end of this month. Good luck.
