You're talking about such a small percentage of the iPhone consumer base. You're talking about people like us, who obsess over these devices and follow their every development. Most consumers don't even know these things exist until they see the advertising, or some feature on the evening news "Steve Jobs announced the new iPhone today!" The perception of BlackBerry is still that of a business device. It's not going to appeal to a majority of the folks who are inclined towards Apple's product.
