BlackBerry’s update process in the first year of BlackBerry 10 wasn’t fantastic for its U.S. customers. Aside from some specific Z10 owners that are on Verizon, the U.S. BB10 consumer base has been stuck with 10.1 officially up until this point. You can mainly blame American wireless carriers for that, but obviously, BlackBerry hasn’t been too happy with how it’s gone either.
Tomorrow, BlackBerry 10.2.1 will officially be launched at 8am EST, and a lot of carriers will have the update available right away including one U.S. carrier, Verizon. Big Red’s Z10 will be getting 10.2.1 tomorrow morning with no limitations on number of users that have access to it, like before. If you’re on AT&T, T-Mobile, or Sprint though, don’t worry, your update is coming a lot sooner than we expected originally.
According to sources with knowledge of the update, BlackBerry is planning on having every major carrier in the world have a 10.2.1 update available to its customers by the end of February, with most jumping on board within the first couple of weeks. The great news for those of us in the States, is that that plan also includes the four major U.S. carriers.
We’ve been given a few tentative dates for U.S. carrier 10.2.1 releases, but keep in mind these are subject to change. The keyword here is “tentative,” but for now, they seem pretty solid to us.
Verizon Z10: Starting tomorrow, January 28th, 2014
Verizon Q10: Tuesday, February 4th, 2014
Verizon Z30: Monday, February 10th, 2014
AT&T Z10 & Q10: Monday, February 10th, 2014
T-Mobile Z10 & Q10: Mid-February (anywhere from Feb 10th to Feb 20th)
Sprint Q10: End of February
U.S. carriers apparently circumvented 10.2 all together, and were able to get their asses out of their heads for enough time to approve 10.2.1 in a timely fashion. Hopefully these updates go smoothly, and everyone can enjoy 10.2.1, and all the benefits it brings along.01-27-14 05:05 PMLike 13 -

- The only time you will get a huge discrepancy between the two exchanges is during an event such as last Mondays US holiday or when one or other of the exchanges is closed while the other remains open. The share price is very much in lock step with the exchange rate.01-27-14 05:46 PMLike 3

And their act is getting slightly old, if you ask me.01-27-14 06:05 PMLike 5 - Since we are talking "entertainment" with those clowns from The Street, anyone seen Jack Ryan:Shadow Recruit and noticed the fairly prominently displayed P9981 lately? The "bad guy" uses one...
Still room for some cool phones in BlackBerry's arsenal, I say.
So much for my contribution as an entertainment reporter.01-27-14 06:10 PMLike 5 - Slighty OT, slighty "entertainment", not so slightly NSA...
BBC News - US and British spies 'get personal data from Angry Birds'01-27-14 06:20 PMLike 5 - Color me impressed. 51 million iphones (sold), strong ipad sales, strong profits, new retail locations, not to mention the quality talent that was (recently) hired by the company. Incredible numbers01-27-14 07:34 PMLike 2

- But they are not keeping pace with the industry's growth. They've got a very nice high end niche, though. The niche is also big enough and profitable enough that they can thrive there for quite some time, turning a healthy profit every quarter.

I agree. I'll take pocket share over market share any day. Main Street is not impressed due to Apple's large market cap, not to mention their lack announcements (new products/product line), so in turn Apple is looked at as a stagnate company(non growth ala Microsoft). This doesn't bother me because it shows me that the company is focused and they move at their own accord vs letting Wall Street dictate their decisions. Apologies if my thoughts are all over the place, I'm cooking dinner/playing assassins creed...

I guess the declining N.A. market share (yes, still large but declining) is now becoming an Apple problem too. The street doesn't seem to like what they presented. What's also interesting to note, is that during the conference call, I think it's the first time I've seen Apple go on the defensive... they mentioned Android 3 times to try and "out do" them in app store sales and profits for devs, quality of content, and I forget the other mention. It was almost an attempt to advertise.01-27-14 08:59 PMLike 5

We just can't win with all the money behind these firms. I'm curious how this carl icahn thing will play out actually so i'll be following that story
When you say think that means that there is shadow of doubt there (I never base my investments on what Wall Street thinks). I prefer to base everything on what I/we know. Increase in EPS, net Profit, Cash on Hand, strong leadership, and being the leader in said sector is what matters most (my main characteristics) to me. Apple isn't going to stay on top forever, however you'd be hard pressed to find a company that offers what they offer at this point in time. As an investor I'm pressed by this company. I'll panic once large institutions start dumping shares.

- Sorry...5000 engineers and zero innovation for how many product cycles? That in a nutshell is what the street is concerned with. They have strong support from some major funds and a ton of well placed "pumpers" so they'll be fine for a while...time will tell the rest of the story.

Since JC took over, the "street" has liked what they hear and see, and look what happens to the stock. They didn't like what they heard from TH, especially after every time he spoke, and look what happened to the stock. I was like "screw them... they're wrong about this company" but they decided in the end. I still believe whole heartily in BlackBerry based on what I see and the information available to me. Am I right? Well, some would agree and some would disagree but currently, the important ones, those on the "street" do and the sp reflects that.01-27-14 10:27 PMLike 12
