Great interview with John Chen from Amanda Lang of the CBC. He did let a little unknown fact slip out of the current subscriber base which currently now sits at 60 million BlackBerry users.

At the end of the video he mentioned machine to machine. What does he mean by that?

Good PR fronting by Chen.

Did you hear what Kevin O'leary said during that show?

He says " I've tried all the new products, and their all crap".

Last March 2013 he was saying the Z10 was "Absolutely amazing" and "the best technology on the market"

CB Kevin even gave him props in a post last March. I don't see how anyone can take O'leary seriously, he's full of it.

With BlackBerry 10 you no longer count as a subscriber so the 60 million subscribers are legacy device users by definition.

I hadn't seen any extended interviews with the him before... he seems very sharp. Good interview.

OH: Thanks for sharing this!

[wjrcoop]

Not available in my country? Huh? Pretty sure something is broken ... or I'm not really in Canada? Hope to see it later ...

... but watching it on my Z30 no sweat...

Not sure about that. But the BlackBerry 10 subscriber count would be minimal anyway.

Probably not the most eloquent way he could have put it, but the truth hurts.

It should be correct because subscribers refers to people who are on BIS or BES.

Consumer BB10 users do not subscribe to BIS (not a mandatory thing, in fact they removed BIS from BB10), so yes, technically with BlackBerry 10, unless you're on BES, you are not counted in as a subscriber.

What exactly are you expecting? He's taken tons of action.

If you want them to suddenly be churning billions of profits in a single quarter and start shipping 15 million devices again, you're asking too much .... of anyone. It will take at least six more quarters

Unless he's told you his current definition of subscriber, I don't think we can assume that the way Mike and Jim measured it is the way he does.

Are you saying that all of us who happen to like BlackBerry 10 are imagining it and full of crap for liking it?

[1REDRUM]

Kevin Oleary I believe still uses a BlackBerry as does the senior people at O'Leary Funds. There were issues / is a learning curve though for people who just thought a Q10 was just a better Bold.

I'm saying there's nothing wrong with Kevin O'leary telling BlackBerry to step up its game.

you do get that action is beign taken right, stabilizing the company right now is more important then pushing out more products that won't sell because of market insecurities

its really time for people to get listening and fully understand whats going on in the company at this current time, if people refuse to understand or just can't then don't comment, at the end of it, you're just wasting your breath and annoying people

there is nothign wrong with it because BlackBerry has what it takes to do it and right now they are working up to it
