Honestly, does the above sound like BBRY at all? If so, how?
Its a nonsensical comparison both in terms of business hiastory , finances, and model. But even that leaves out the most basic difference - the car isn't dependent on software applications. What people here chronically don't get, despite some of us telling them for years now (and despite them being awe struck by heins "insight") - smartphones are computers. It is the primary difference between feature phones and smartphone.
If all you need is a feature phone - check mail, text, call, basic internet - get a feature phone if you can find one. Save money, easy to use, reliable, durable...
But for most people who use a computer - having apps , or at least potential to have apps, is of paramount importance. Especially for the power user or " prosumer" if you will. Next and IBM had great operating systems but I didn't recommend them for that obvious.
The closest thing one could say about Tesla would be that parts and service won't be really available. And that of course IS a consideration for most car buyers, but that is only in play when the car needs service. If Tesla sold you a car with no wheels, No power train, no tranny, no radio, no seats, and none were available - then you'd have a good rough analogy. People on cracvkberry would say: well, the body is the best!!! And sometimes Toyota seats work with a few caveats, and maybe future BMW transmissions will work...
