And apparently, neither does their fanbase. It boggles my mind how some brand loyalists can be so close minded that they don't even realize that they've become an afterthought to the rest of the smartphone community
RIM just had a 'big' Blackberry event this week, which you may have seen on some tech blogs and skimmed over. Here's what I took away from it:
RIM Stocks dropped during their event. How embarrassing.
Media covereage was lukewarm or negative
Big name developer interest was notably absent
The 'innovations' they revealed on this upcoming "BB10" were basically just a different face on things that Android, iOS, and even WP have been able to do for the last year. And if not, they'll probably be on those platforms before RIM launches it.
Here's a sad example of misguided and blind brand loyalty. Talk about Osterich... wow.
