Sales Depts lack of knowledge not helping Blackberry sales
Thought i would share this.I currently own a 9800 and a 9790Bold and a 16 gb playbook.Last night I went to BestBuy and was looking at blackberry products when a lady came in and asked to speak to a sales rep about the playbook...she was told a sales rep from the tech dept would be right with her.He arrived and told her who he was and immediately said it was a good price but it would be no longer of much use as of June.With this she inquired why and at this point i too asked why. He said there would be no more blackberry after june and they were only making software and no more hardware...not even phones. i asked if he was the sales rep in charge of this dept and he said yes.......now i asked him if he was aware of the Developers conference taking place as we speak and he had any knowledge of BB10 coming out..or of playbook 2.0 being released this month....by now his face has become very red when i said to him that before he ever knocks a product he should try it...and understand more about it...so at the end of all this i left bestbuy and went to staples as i would not buy there and actually had no intentions of buying another tablet...but did buy a 64gb and passed my 16gb to my wife...ohhhh...and the other lady also showed up at staples and bought a 32gb...I got the last 64gb in stock
