Isn't BES / BIS still bringing in some income ?
Really, my post about the Samsung comparison was to point out what I can only think of as bigoted veiws of some on these few threads, re BB10 and BBOS.
Now and again I have a break from my regular haunts and come over here for a few days.....that's apart from visiting daily to veiw the news articles etc. And this visit has been worse than others, if that were at all possible.
I'd seen a post from one of the forum owners re playing nicely, but in these few threads all I've seen are "over importance of the person in their own mind" posts, many posts where people are called trolls etc, and some posts where other posters are treated quite rudely.
And as Crackberry is mosly at the forefront of anything Blackberry, what sort of message does this throw out? Will new visitors want to join in these threads when the 'fanboys' jump on the slightest thing and either shout troll or ridicule?
Blackberry are not stupid...they have seen by their latest figures that BBOS is still outselling BB10. Obviously everyone wants to get BB10 out there....let people see that BB10 is more than a match for competitors. But no one can dispute BBOS is still wanted by customers. And if Blackberry are not only willing to keep BIS running, but release a new BBOS phone then they themselves quite obviously want to keep BBOS around for a while.....which makes an *** of the ones continually snapping troll at people who mention and like BBOS....
