Opportunity RIMPIRE... Time to Strike Back! | CrackBerry.com
The main argument here is because the iPhone 4S looks exactly like the iPhone 4, RIM has an excellent opportunity to sell Blackberries that.. wait for it... look exactly like previous Blackberries.

Obviously, Blackberry fanboys are as stupid as RIM's current management.

RIM and the lamentation of the analyst | asymco
Moneyquote: "In terms of market share, we’ll have to wait for the competitor data over the next six weeks but the market has been growing at an average of 77% for four quarters so any continuation of this trend would imply RIM’s share dropping to single digits."

This is what happens when you are arrogant and ignore disruption.

Mobile Opportunity: What's Next for RIM?
Moneyquote: "To restore momentum in a faltering platform, you need a hit product.  Can RIM generate one?  The company says it will accelerate the introduction of new products, which sounds sensible in the abstract, but if it's possible to develop products faster, why didn't RIM do it before?  And considering RIM's history of shipping buggy devices, I tremble at what its products might look like if they were developed even faster."

Why Apps, Not Apple, Are Killing BlackBerry
Moneyquote: "BlackBerry apps are typically the last version that companies like Shazam, Instapaper or Pandora develop. They’re often also more expensive than their counterparts on other platforms. If you’re a BlackBerry owner, you get to pay $4.99 to play Angry Farm while your friends are playing Angry Birds for $0.99 on iOS and Android. When everyone else is raving about their free Netflix app that streams movies to their phones, you have to settle for Movela Netflix Queue Manager, which costs $4.99 and doesn’t stream anything."

BlackBerry World: Now Wait for Last Year | This is my next...
Moneyquote: "RIM seems to have two distinct problems: the first is that it doesn’t seem to adapt quickly to a changing market, and the second is that when it finally does make a move, the results too often feel half baked. The company and its leaders seem almost indignant about the fact that they no longer lead in a field which they clearly feel they created. The unfortunate reality for RIM is that it’s in the process of trading first place for third, and in an increasingly crowded market, it’s not battling to win, it’s battling to stay alive."
