    Notice how his job is "physicist".

    Although he is on the board of UWaterloo for some reason (as are Watsa and Lazaridis' wife).

    Education section says a master's in physics, so I think the job title's a placeholder for "nothing at the moment".

    Probably pondering why he failed to market a great product. He had a lot of cash, didn't use it to advertise the brand and truly cater business users as well as early adopters of emerging platforms. Saw two "ads" that weren't on the internet, one on a Delta flight in the back of a head-rest and that confusing Super Bowl advertisement.

    He's on a tropical beach drinking a corona while sitting on a muskoka chair made out of the overstocked Z10 phones he ordered and put the company in the position it's in right now.

    Was looking for factual information, rather than the comments that are now coming in. I should have stated no sarcasm, lol.

    Honestly I'm more interested in where he is NOT , rather than where he is. No hard feelings to the guy, but wrong person for these times.

    He was dealt a basically unwinnable hand, with most of the chips already in the middle of the table. Somehow he stayed in the game long enough for the next player to take over his chair. Let's see if the chips grow.

    Godspeed, Thor.

    Some of you are blaming the wrong guy!

    Really, Thorsten is to blame? Lol. Blackberry decided to simply not compete with apple. That's why they are where they are.

    Most likely he will go back to Germany and work for SAP or return to his old post at Siemens. Don't think anyone would hire him as CEO. Best he would get now is COO.
