    @ Sairos. Maybe you're in the states or wealthy EU country? We, and I mean those of us that live in the US, can grab tons of stuff for cheap. I can see the price difference.

    Good grief. I bet some of the people complaining about the TCL partnership can't even tell me the last device that was actually BUILT by BlackBerry.
    Aside from a handful of engineering samples in Waterloo, and perhaps the Dev Alpha's (Mine said Made in Canada). I don't think RIM has actually BUILT any devices from in house. Certainly not the models that went into production after their testing.

    They are not. They are doing so to reduce the cost of developing hardware as much as possible. We can leave the best quality stuff behind and start to live the same standard that most people do. I won't mind that they let TCL do the design and the manufacturing work. I won't buy one any way.

    There's no viable reason to do so. Manufacturing costs a lot with very minimal returns. Outsourcing it to OEM makes sense if the design is good, and manufacturer is chosen rightly.

    Most IT brands do it to earn on the margin they need/want.

    It makes sense.

    You can probably get a Mercedes with the serial numbers ground off free with that purchase, too.
