How is RIMM doing overseas? Apparently the Arab spring protest movement relied a lot more on them than other smart phones.

I consider RIMM to be more like Palm and less like Nokia. Either a buyout or BK will be RIMM's fate, with BK being the more likely scenario IMO. Their only hope is licensing their...

I was hearing about BB it seems they are going down. I think Microsoft would benefit the most out of it. Isn't that how Microsoft started to take control of the market (Dell, HP, Asus, Compaq,...

They have a big enough patent portfolio, I'm sure someone will buy them up when they hit rock bottom. As an independent company they are definitely doomed. That's what happens when you sit on your...

Nope, I don't think they will either. iPhone & Android are already squarely in the BB market, and the only things that RIMM has going for them are their customer base (which will shrink as contracts...

If mgmt chooses to just release the same BB phones with no real strong value proposition then no, I suspect they end up like Palm and go the wayside. They need to find some other ways to innovate,...

It definitely won't. Pretty sad too. As others have said, its either BK or acquisition. The only reason why a company would acquire RIMM is for its patents. I don't see any RIMM product being...

Agreed - they were at the top of the market for anyone who wanted to send & receive mail from their phone, but then they ignored the entire web & application market. Terrible, terrible choice by top...

Long term no. I expect them to bleed for a while. They'll eventually either file for bankruptcy or they'll be acquired. If they file for bankruptcy, the stock price drop which makes it a buying...

only reason Nokia has been handing on is Asia. Nokia is still pretty big there. But its dropping fast with iPhones and other Smartphones coming out in China, India, and other countries.

On the other hand they do have a steady income stream, the problem is they have huge legacy costs rent/staff. If someone can acquire...

I think they can survive if they don't try to compete with the iPhone and Droid. Basically, market a product that business professionals can't live without.

Given that the only thing they have going for them is a user base...... which is quite easily eroded/stolen, no; long term they are toast. Best bet is short-term acquisition (for the user base,...
