RIM Cranking Out Latest Additions to BlackBerry Family

I bought the iPhones 3GS when it came out last month. Kept it for about 20 days, and in the end I returned because I found reading email and finding contacts a tiring task on the eyes and finger. I'm back to CURVE 8300.

The only thing I miss on the iPhone were the APPS.

The Blackbery App store offerings are weak.

I'll be getting my BOLD soon, but I think RIM should have annouced by now an updated BOLD with a better camera, some of the better location based service apps, and faster speed.

RIM needs to get cracking.

iPhone will need to come down in price,and ATT will have to lower it's data subscription costs for me to be interested in buying the iPhone.

Is Apple More Undervalued Than Other Tech Sector Stocks?

Excellent article! Best way to judge the value of anything is relative to the alternatives. It's how we do appraisals in the real estate industry. You've made a good point about Apple being the best priced real estate in Fremont, but do I want to buy real estate in Fremont where the schools are great but prices haven't come down much or am I better off buying it in areas like Hayward where prices have dropped 50% or more.

RIM Faces a Critical Month As Apple Gets Tough

Apple will win the consumer market, because it's easy to use and remember it's an iPod with a phone. So all those iPod lovers who lover carrying around their music will love to have a single device to move to once they can afford it.

However, the iPhone is not a business phone, and because of secuirty and management issues. RIMM is not going away, they may not grow as fast as APPl, but they will continue to grow, and until AAPL comes out with a keyboard for the iPhone they'll have a distinct advantage over the iPhone.

When I'm searching for real estate online, it's way more efficient to use a keyboard.

Five Reasons RIMM Will Continue to Fall

Apple has been making iMacs for how long, and they seem to be on the uptick now because the commodity product is not as easy, "not as secure", even though Apple charges a premium.

Blackberry needs to continue to innovate and has a number of new products coming out, hopefully they've improved their SW on the multimedia side, and browsing speed as well.

RIMM: The Cheapest Growth Stock?

I agree, RIMM will continuing to own corporate accounts. Until Jobs's gets over himself, and remembers that he still sells MACs with a keyboard and mouse because it's a faster,more precise and easier way to input data, and offers similar conveniences along with better security on iPhones, he'll continue to play the consumer space predominatly.

RIM is still the preferred device for users who respond to email. Touch is great for enlarging and shrinking a web page, but a keyboard is best for typing. I refuse to pay a premium for a phone's data service ala Apple. Data is data.
