I am pretty impressed with my BB Bold. Surprisingly, RIM is not stuck in their ways and are quite nimble when it comes to developing new products. Thee Torch looks like it is going to fly and the Playbook looks like it can out perform the Ipad. What I really want to know is when he gets his NHL team, why not just put it in Kitchener-Waterloo?</p> I must have been one of the last people on earth to get a smartphone.

- what will prompt developers to develop for the Playbook? After all you can’t even settle on one OS – 6.0 or QNX?

- Blackberry is doing well internationally as a value smart-phone is countries where browsing and data charges are at a premium? Why not concede the high end and focus on the lower end and become the Nokia of smartphones.

- Why did it take this long to figure out the app play on smartphones? Why did you underspec the Torch? And in the same vein, why overspec the Playbook?

So are they going to run new phones on their Tablet OS or will they run an OS7?
Or do RIM think it’s a perfect solution suggesting we develop in 4.5 so we can reach 83% of their smartphones?
