Default Re: Interesting Facts - BlackBerry

1. Their tablet was late and a disaster. Let's not forget it had no e-mail client at launch (how many people were working on that one) and was not upgradable. Oops.

2. Looks like Blackberry dropped the ball on that one. Again and again.

3. They are all gone now.

BlackBerry also had Co-CEOs who were not very good at seeing the future, but one was very interested in buying a hockey team. And backdating options. Their one shot - one - and making a dent on the iPhone runaway train was too little, too late and too weak.

BlackBerry failed in the phone market. Nothing will bring that back. They are now being moderately successful in the mobile management and software areas.
