I have noticed an interesting change.....the 'fanboys' have transitioned into 'glass is empty, but eventually something will be in it' ...we have (geeze i don't know what to call them now) 'apologists' and 'pollyanna's' for the current state of BBRYs current earnings result....(shades of the 'Thor promised we would get bb10 on playbook' blindness)...they refuse to see the writing on the wall....z10 isn't resurecting BBRY...q10 is sputtering along.....

It�s a lot weaker than most analysts expected. 2.7 million units is less than one million per month.
There are only 72 million BlackBerry subscribers left, down from 76 million last quarter and 79 million the quarter before that.(not taking into account pi$$Ing off 2million playbook owners)
we have to see what happens when the Q10 is in full swing and we have to see what happens in emerging markets when the Q5 hits

Apologists always have that to hang on too....of course when that doesn't deliver...Thor will just announce a new model....the fu5 maybe...and they can hope ........................again...............

In the mean time, Wall Street wants results yesterday. BlackBerry did not deliver.....well they did......They delivered what my dog delivers when i take her out for a walk........................A dump!

[theegoldenone]

Sorry op. It seemed the writing was on the wall for bb10 on the pb. And also on the wall for a non release. You provided us with a little bit of hope. Can't ask for anything more from you. I still use mine daily, so it's not a big deal to me, though having the z10, it would have been nice. Oh well. Dust yourself off and continue on with the journey.

Blackberry has not been silent, they have not said a lot but they have not been silent.

We all know Thorston Heins said Blackberry 10 will be on all playbooks by the end of the year, he more recently said that their tablet plans have not changed. If we take those 2 statements in mind with the FACT that the playbooks resolution has been re added to the 10.2 SDK (was removed in 10.1) 1024x600 its pretty clear looking at all three of these statments that its only a matter of time before we have 10.2 in one shape or form on our little black workhorses.

Blackberry has not been entirely silent on the issue, but they have also not said a lot at the same time. you just have to have ears to hear and know where to look.

Keep your eyes peeled there is a lot of good stuff happening in the meantime.

and please please please stop all the blackberry are liars posts cause it simply is not true

Boy doesn't the OP feel like a dope now.

Boy doesn't the OP feel like a dope now.

He can't, he's a fish and by the way this thread was not just another yet again bb10 thread. The reason is the OP is intelligent and possesses a sense of humor!

[lnichols]

bb10 is dead, now its hopes for a pbos2.2 or 2.5 or 3.0

Nope time to accept the fact they only made statements to move units that were being heavily written off, and they don't plan to support the PlayBook beyond what it is. I could have bought a iPad too for the same price and would probably be getting BBM soon. Instead I was RIM'd. I even got some other people to buy PlayBooks saying that it would get BB10. Heard from one of them today as he sent me a link to an article about BB10 not coming to the PlayBook and I apologized. And to think that this $H!T @$$ company still wants us to go out and sell and evangelize for them and they just continue the string of BS! Sorry but I'm done with trying to help this company out. My two Z10's I'm in for will be the last money they get from me, and I'll go out and buy some Android or iOS devices for the kids since RIM and other companies will support those platforms, where not even RIM will will support their own stuff!

The thing is that they probably believe comapnies can only live from stupid advertisments and filthy store personel advertising their products? A lot is based on positive mouth to mouth propaganda - seems like they decided to fart into this advertisment channel with a lot of disrespect - will they wonder why so many loyal supporters will let them down now?

I parked downtown in a sketchy neighborhood at lunch today and left my Playbook on the dashboard. Well when I came back the windows were all broken and some thug had left 5 Playbooks on the dashboard.

My sincere sympathies to those in the Blackberry-influenced industries, I hope your careers find you in more stable employment and sincerely that you land on your feet.I am simply grateful that all I lost was my trust in a corporation and about $200 in Blackberry technology, software, and accessories. I was fortunate someone talked me into choosing an IPhone 2 weeks ago. Whew, that was close.

It's official BB10 is not coming to the Playbook. BlackBerry officially announced it today to the world, BNN and the worlds other business networks also reported on it. Also BlackBerry reported losing 600,000 clients in the last month or two and now refuses to give an accurate number as to how many people are using BlackBerry devices; the writing is on the wall.

Leave this to me fish as I am an experienced thread thingy........

I hereby officially and definitely and other things I can't spell, hyjack this thread. I have locked it away in a secret place with only enough food and water for four days. After that time it will have to buy its own food. (I'm not a millionaire you know and food is expensive, well I.... Not going there) anyway that's the state of affairs. I will contact you later with the ransom note details and under no circumstances are you allowed to contact the CrackBerry police regarding this.
