Ok then, now I understand what you meant. However the only innovation I can think of that they have done is OS and packaging. After all, they don't actually produce the components.

However the crappiest innovation that they actually came up with is to have glass all over the phone just so it breaks easily... and it does, especially in temperature fluctuations. Obviously iPhone is not designed to be used in Norway and Canada because when it gets cold, glass and metal frame shrink differently.

Also Blackberry doesn't really feel like trying to get it's products outside US, does it? Never seen one, never seen any advertisement for one and never known anyone here who would own one.

When I had an iphone it I left it in the car and it got a "cold" from the tempurature, kept turning off and on xD So I know exactly what you mean

The blackberrys are all over the UK. Nearly every single kid who can't afford a phone like iPhone have blackberrys here. The "BBM HYPE".

Blackberry sucks

Blackberry is good for what it did. It was a leader in its area for a damn long time. It however wasn't able to  deal with the competition.

Google and MSFT took a huge swipe at its resource pool. Apple found a way into biting the markup that Blackberry enjoyed for a while.

Seriously, Waterloo campus is a faction of the size of Google's and Microsoft's main resource, and they made moves to hire from it.

Should read the case studies. RIM's main advantage was supposed to be the network. Not the OS, nor the phone.

Are we talking about the Blackberry Data Service Plan and the enterprise business server?

But I can see Nokia breaking back into the smart phone market if they're not too late.

Dual-Core 1GHZ Processor chip.
Win7 OS.
AMOLED screen
12 megapixel Carl Zeiss Camer Lens with a Xenon flash.
1080p Video recording
HDMi output
Beats for Dre speaker technology
A slimmer, more sleeker "iphone 4" looking N97-Mini design.

Offtt.... Rigged to explode. I swear I would put my hands down for that bitch.

Waterloo campus. Google, Microsoft, Apple etc. All have their own main post secondary campuses they go to look for fresh hires. RIM's is Waterloo. Google and Microsoft went there to hire. Waterloo is already technically a small campus in population already.

Err, a combination. Through RIM's servers, there is a higher degree of privacy and ability to protect your data. (ie: Business data). Security is also higher. However, this also was somewhat a barrier to entry into the Asian countries where governments wanted to be able to access the data.

bloody000:
There's also the fact that BBOS is designed to be more secure and centrally controlled. Your IT dept. can disable functions however they want, lock it down or even wipe it completely.
