That is my opinion and you are entitled to yours.
An interesting point. I was just reading an article on how the iphone is going to raise the demand and the consumers appetite for mobile data. Just like with SMS, when the cell companies smell a success, they find more ways to extort more money for it. When Android OS phones hit the shells next year, there will be even more demand for data. It will be interesting to see how the market responds.

I will be ignoring all these first day issues. Nobody's perfect. If they were sitting in emply Apple stores with unsold iPhones and very responsive activation Web site that would have been worse for them.

Yet, BlackBerry is far from dead. Competition is good. We all win.
first day issues two years running though. No network issues have ever happened on the RIM network on release day.

Maybe because RIM hasn't had a million blackberry handsets activated in one Week ...

but RIM doesn't have the return rate as some of these devices out there. No one comes close actually.

If RIM wanted to sell to everyone and their mother, they'd hire chuck norris, cause after all everyone loves chuck norris.

And if they didn't buy them, a round house kick would convince them to do so.

RIM does want to sell to everyone now, just look at their new product line and you will see a device for everyone, from the flip version to the full business model. They want the whole range. Honestly because of the way RIM servers take all the data I think if they got 1 million new accounts over a weekend they might have a catastrophe on their hands. Just my 2 cents.

How come you're pushing the standards up for RIM? AT&T didn't activate 1 million accounts on release day.
