I sincerely miss PIM, LED & other notifications that are native to BlackBerry – and quick frankly the simple bill with NO damn surprises. 

I’m hoping that future BlackBerry SDK’s along with QNX bring even more powerful, efficient (battery life), and yet more interactive applications that give performance and not lag … and soon.

What most people do not realize is that RIM is not “Loosing market share” per-say they are only leveling out. Remember RIM took a huge bit out of the consumer market a long time back and took a huge spike in their share in the consumer market, now they are starting to compete with Apple and Android and they are starting to have to share the market, so if RIM had 80% of the market and along come competition because lets be honest the iPhone and Android devices are great devices but not my preference because of many reasons. So because of this the shares have to be take from someone, someone has to go up someone has to go down. I believe it will eventually it will plateau when everyone has found their spot and are settled in. 

One thing people fail to mention or if they do then mention it it is normally in some kind of hatred, RIM has consistently grown in the business sector where others are failing. Yes I know fan boys will quote one off situations where company A has dropped BlackBerry for iPhones etc… I wonder where they are today? I never hear the story at the end of the tunnel… I wonder why we do not hear success stories of company A that has been using iPhones or Android devices with 100% success like we do with BES and BlackBerry devices. They do exist but they are far and few in between is why.

Let me tell you something we have a Exchange 2007 environment and we installed BES 5.0 in under 2 hours! That speaks words for RIM, you tell me these iPhone environments that can be setup and 100% stable and can be trusted as solid and mature in 2 hours. Sure maybe a single security policy to wipe a device can be setup but with BES we just opened a door to 10,000 possibilities to do with our devices with iPhones or Android device you lust closed a door to get a select few options to control your devices. Why would you want to restrict yourself to basic simple stuff? Not me I use a BlackBerry because it can live in both worlds Business and Personal and I love them for that, no carrying 2 phones one for work one for personal.

Also just so people know I blog about RIM and ideas for cool things. RIM have a look http://caspan.com and I love to post. When you see my rating above almost 95% of all of those are on BlackBerry blogs!
