    Oh my goodness, it looks like the haters were right
    RIM is dead!

    The company is just BlackBerry. They are making an official name change.
    That is awesome. One brand, one promise!

    RIP RIM.

    Yes I read his whole post. It can also be taken as a troll post.
    And it wasn't so I think you should lighten up.

    I think that it is a great change, it shows that RIM (I mean BlackBerry) is committed to the new platform and they are not getting out of the hardware game anytime soon.

    It was nice to see Thor acknowledge Mike & Jim. "RIM" might be gone, but those guys did so much for the company.

    Cool. I know they'd been talking about the name change for awhile, but I was a bit surprised that they used today's event to announce it. Good move, I say.

    When I heard that they were renaming the company to BB10, it reminded me of the story of those marauding knights who would land on a foreign shore, burn their ships and then begin to fight their way. By burning their ships, they were all-in all the way. I guess RIM (or BlackBerry) just burnt their ships. Impressive.
