  • 3 Tech Stocks To Beat Google's High Valuations [View article]
    Please also note that they did not actually "LOST" emails: these have been delayed; not a single was lost. Even in a "critical" situation, RIM infrastructure is built for resistance (that was the case for these disruptions or even the former single outage), so that users won't lose data.
    This has never (?) been pointed out ... ask hotmail users what they think about it ...

    Not only; it can be a marketing action resulting in lower prices to gain consumers.

    It's an alignment to the competition, name it 3GS, for example. Nothing innovative here. There's yet no reasonable reason to upgrade, unless you want a new device or hype your phone. Last reason being part of *brilliant* (I mean it) apple marketing.

    Unless those who are developing for and currently have it in hands.
    You have no idea.

    Well, obviously, you're not familiar with acquisition costs ...

    @ Brian L. Wilson Thanks for this.
    My personal opinion is that iphone5 won't be as much as announced the phenomenon trumpeted by medias (many forecasts have been lowered). It will still be a best-seller, but what anyone can observe is that it's not that much attractive to non apple users. It is an update, merely an upgrade. Christmas sales will be very significant ... what will the kids decide ? ip5 or 3Gs ?

    @Marcap ... you should moderate what you seem to expose as facts.
    $100 a month in N.A/Europe, really ? Are you paying that much for your device ??? $50 a month in developing countries ?
    Then the revenue drop of 30% since when ? Q1 2012 ? Q1 2011 ?

    You reasoning not even worth an average bachelor test.

    Stop arguing, just say : please, I'm short: I'm beggin' you : save my a$$ (Peter "all false RIM all love apple" Misek being in the same boat). But, I hope the majority of investors here, that are able to read between these lines will play against this perverse usage of information and short minded speculation. Time to pay. Cash.

    P.S: I'm no fool - I do know we're talking about making money.

  • Research In Motion (RIMM -2.4%) slides after Jefferies' Peter Misek claims BlackBerry 10 won't launch until March - RIM has only promised BB10 devices will be available at some point in Q1. Also, Misek says "checks point to a tough November quarter," as channel partners cut back on inventory, and is skeptical RIM will find a buyer. (previous) (more on BB10[View news story]
    Yeah... Misek has no clue. He covers his wrong short recommendation... Pathetic.

    Absolutely. The point is "how many times" can they afford to trick users ... the 4- 4S - 5 sequence: do you believe they can do it once again ?

    Maybe the financial angle you use (correct in S.A environment) may have hidden some marketing perspective. IMHO, MS needs RIM to expand, like RIM needs MS to recover a leading position.
    Such an acquisition won't result in a mathematical market shares addition; some of RIM customers would probably go Android or even APPL so that the #3 "cake portion" would only be a position, not a massive customers gain.

    Moreover, RIM/MS collaboration seems to strengthen - Despite T. Heins politely declined Balmer's "Nokia style" deal sooner this year - the free BB Business Cloud services attached to MS365 online being one strong proof (add ActiveX support and exFAT license for more).

    RIM's 80 million customers are potentially as many users of MS services (365, Lync, ...) that may sit these technologies in large corporations. With the PlayBook, accessing/editing MS documents on the web is a reality, now (still some minor glitches). I strongly suspect BB10 will be fully compliant. Add RIM's back-end security/privacy features and ... we have a MS+RIM winner here for companies.

    In short; MS need to buy RIM like they need a hole in their head (sorry for this, Prince fan here lol).

    BlackBerry devices are attached to contracts (BIS/BES). Just count the licenses.
