    Even a 5 year old knows Mac is better than Vista. Ppeople would rather pay a little more for a mac than a pc because mac is so much better that it totally worth it. Reply

    Five Reasons RIMM Will Continue to Fall [view article]
    That's what happens when you play musical chairs with stocks, expecting bigger fools to pay more than you did. Rimm was obviously overvalued. And when the "momentum investors" pull out, they all pull out, don't they? Wasn't Jim Cramer advocating this stock a few days ago? And he also said that it's good to buy overvalued companies, well here you go. Reply

    Five Reasons RIMM Will Continue to Fall [view article]
    Sounds like a lot of guess work to me. You say enterprises will, going forward replace their RIMM email architecture with ‘open’ e-mail systems. This is a pricey venture for any corporation, and I think that is where your argument is flawed. Also, you can definitely set up say, A Microsoft Exchange server and still get your e-mail pushed to you. Many Corporations, including my previous employer, take this route as it leaves options open. Even though they leave the door open they still continue to buy RIMM products, why?
    Apple, Motorola, and other Smart phone manufactures have attempted to compete with RIMM’s line of product and have on every occasion failed epically. Starting with the iPhone, not many business people would be dumb enough to even consider buying this for business use. The on screen keyboard is annoying, and not easy to use. The fact that it is all touch screen poses another user interface issue, which would be navigation. Yes the interface is easy, however there aren’t any options, you must use the touch screen. Another down fall for many people is it is made by Apple… And realistically it simply doesn’t do what a Black Berry does. Onto Motorola, as if the Windows Mobile platform didn’t suck enough, you have Motorola who doesn’t want you to lay your hands on a full version of windows mobile. So they hack it all up to crap, leaving you with nothing good, and nothing very functional.

    The only real opponent I can see of RIMM’s for business phones is HTC, but HTC also has a few problems. The HTC Touch was a failure, its screen often failed, it would freeze a lot, and does not have push e-mail. The HTC P4000 (I have this pone  ) is an ok phone, but that is for personal use. Once again no push e-mails system like the Black Berry’s. Once again running windows mobile, which has its pros and cons, the con being that my P4000 seems to freeze up on me like it’s a new religion.

    What I’m getting to is RIMM has competitors, but are they even in the same race? When it comes to Business solutions, I would think that no other company can offer a product even half as good as RIMM’s. The operating system is stable, the phones are nice and even becoming stylish, true push e-mail system, use java so software is widely available, and EVERYONE has one. I work in sales, in a retail environment and young people are constantly looking at Black Berry’s. I think RIMMS stock is just showing that the economy is slowing down.

    well, they're certainly turning out some good devices. I like my new E71 - does everything my Blackberry used to do, and I set up gmail and Flickr on it in about 2 minutes. fast for emails, good camera, can shoot video, and long battery life. Reply

    good article. RIMM's a decent outfit, but the stock is overvalued. has been for a long time. I hope most of you got out at 140 as I did, then went short to monetize the flip side! anyone still holding on, I'd either liquidate now, or if you have the stomach, wait for the next suckers bounce and then get out. all the Canadian bank analysts were convinced the stock would go to 200, but they've been, and will be, proved both wrong and biased in their analysis.

    Just another "writer" writing after the fact... If RIM's numbers or forecasts would have "pleased" all the investors/traders, it would have shot up to the usual 115-120. Now that the hype and b/s hit it, the traders and wusses will drive it down until they are ready to run it up again.. And don't forget the sitution of the market anyway.. But then again, thats investing. This will just be another good traders story in the future... RIM peeps want to make money with their phones, and iPhone just want to listen to music or watch movies on that giant screen. Then again, that's the beauty of options, it doesn't matter which way the stock goes. JUST SET YOUR STOPS. LATER Reply

    You're right. A settlement was reached in late July, but specific financial details were not disclosed. So there is still uncertainty caused in the stock price until we can see the impact of the settlement terms.     Reply

    RIM have been totally, outclassed, eclipsed even, by iPhone. That won't change, it will just take some people several years to realize it.

    there are parts of this article i think are exaggerations, but the fact that RIMM's products are becoming more commonplace is at least a little true. Blackberry's just really aren't that expensive anymore. RIMM definitely needs to create a new "must have" phone. I think RIMM is gonna see some some red, even though sentiment for this company is surprisingly bullish Reply

    - AAPL is currently trading at $102. they have around $24 in cash and no debt. While the current PE is 20 the "real" PE is around $78/$5.12 = 15.5 which while not cheap (for 100 billion dollar company) is resonable.
    - Apple said margins will come down in this quarter. Seems like it did not register with most analysts when they said so. Not it is finally hitting them.
    - In this economy how many people will buy a $1000+ Mac laptop versus a $600 Dell/HP laptop. Add to this the fact that Apple has only one laptop at $1000, everything else is more expensive!!! Also Dell/HP laptop's are getting hipper and Windows Vista is relatively decent.


    My Advice: I would take half a position around $100'ish and then another half if drops to $80'ish. If it does not drop till $80'ish then wait till after earnings for stock direction to firm up. Too much risk right now becuase of the economy and possibility of earnings miss. Look at how GOOG and RIMM got punished.     Reply

    This article is not necessarily true. And Motorola is a better comparison. They had an awesome product, "at the time", but was not able to keep innovating. There is a lot of pressure when you are at the top like RIM and Apple to keep people willing to pay the extra money for their top end phones. If RIM and Apple do fall into the trap mentioned in this article, then someone else will come along and have that next "must have no matter the cost" phone. Apple and RIM both have the cash to keep innovating through this crisis, even though sales may "not accelerate as fast" for a bit. Reply
