  • But, But BlackBerry Was Dead [View article]
    What similar? The 6 to 13,5% increase that this article mentioned was for Canada only, not global sales.

  • But, But BlackBerry Was Dead [View article]
    The numbers in the article (from 6 to 13,5%) obviously means SALES of NEW phones.

    The Statscounter numbers that Marcap keeps draging around every BBRY article shows PAGEVIEWS from OLD/EXISTING phones.

    It's two completely different things and the whole discussion is just ridcoulus.

  • BlackBerry Q5 The Latest Reason To Go Long [View article]
    Since BB10 was released during the end of Q1 those numbers are pointless, BBRY could only sell phones that where 1-2 yers old until just recently, anyone smart enough should be able to figure this out really.

  • BlackBerry Eyes Subscriber Growth With Q5 And Cross-Platform BBM Support [View article]
    They will keep losing subs for at least two more quarters, just look att how many units they sold 2-3 years ago, their contracts are ending now, once we are past that peak it will start increasing again when the BB10 sales pick up globally.

    This should however not be considered a big problem, as Heinz said himself, they are now losing subs that they don't make much if any money on, while they are adding new subs that earns them much more.

  • BBM Cross Platform Means Gold For BlackBerry [View article]
    500 million does sound a bit optimistic, 200 million sounds more realistic

  • BlackBerry Launches A Land Grab In Mobile Messaging [View article]
    Extremely aggressive selling that started even before he had said anything of interest, of course this only means that short interest will be even higher after today, shorts are playing a stupid game that will end very badly from their prespective.

  • BlackBerry Week In Review: Bears Take An Unsuccessful Swipe [View article]
    "Conclusions: The BBRY story is all about customer demand for the Q-10 and the company's prospects for being acquired."

    Shouldn't you add BES10 to that story? Peter Misek has about 90% of his target price based on BES10

  • Early feedback on U.K./Canadian BlackBerry Q10 (BBRY -4%) sales indicate volumes below expectations, says Cleveland Research. The firm also thinks Z10 sell-thru is likely half of what it was around launch time, and believes BB10 build targets for the next few quarters could fall to 6M-8M from 10M-12M. Likewise, Pac Crest remains bearish, and calls the U.K./Canadian Q10 launches a "mess." The remarks follow a pessimistic note about BB10 sales on Monday from Canaccord, and one on April 25 from Wedge Partners. Jefferies has been more positive. [View news story]
    The usual suspects out with their lies again, one day they will all be in jail and BBRY will be above $100, it could end up like that later this year.

  • "Our checks indicate Z10 sales in Canada, U.S., and UK remain steady with no excess inventory or return issues," writes Jefferies' Peter Misek, once more defending BlackBerry (BBRY +2.4%) as other analysts provide a more downbeat take. Also, like SA contributor Michael Collins, Misek reports of strong U.K. Q10 demand on launch day at Carphone Warehouse outlets found within Selfridges department stores. Some expected the Q10 to see a stronger launch than the Z10, given it's aimed more squarely at BlackBerry's traditional base. (previous[View news story]
    Misek is basing his reports on facts, and he was very bearish for a long time until he changed his view last fall. The bears are basing their report on guesses, dreams our outright lies.

    BBRY is more of an BES10 play imho

  • BlackBerry (BBRY +1.4%) spiked in afternoon trading after U.K.-based SA contributor Michael Collins reported of strong Q10 demand at a Carphone Warehouse store on launch day. According to Collins, the store sold out of its stock of 2K units within 90 minutes, with demand apparently well above that seen for the Z10. Some of the demand came from exporters, many of whom were "buying 20+ units each." (Q10 reviews[View news story]
    All numbers have to be put in relation to the value of the company, this is very basic to an investor but you seem to have missed this fact completely.

    BB hasn't delayed anything, it's the carriers in US that are slow

    It has technical support around 250 so covering some short term short here might be good
