I applaud their efforts though in this recent turn in marketing, and focusing more and more on the prosumer and not the business only crowd. I have been working in Cellular for quite awhile now and RIM has created such a buzz with their devices that i find more and more people seeing their appeal. So I say hey, one mans garbage is another mans treasure. Some individuals do not need GPS, and WIFI and some do. Nice to know though that RIM is taking chances and finding their place in the ever changing cell game.
