BlackBerry Picked the Wrong Day to Die
Brian Barrett via Gizmodo
[…] for those worried about the company’s future, the fact that this was a systemic failure and not third-party havoc should be positively chilling. They don’t know what happened. They don’t know how to fix it. They just know that it’s their own fault.
Meanwhile: Apple. There’s been plenty written here and elsewhere about iOS 5, which is clean and user-friendly and functional. The iPhone 4S will be here in two days. And when you’re abandoned in a data-less desert, there’s no more tempting oasis than Apple’s. Your shit’s broken, iTunes calls out. Ours is shiny and new. Yes, iCloud could well unravel into another MobileMe. But that doesn’t mean the grass on its side is any less green today.
Oh, man. Sell RIM, buy Apple.

I’m sorry, BlackBerry fans, but it’s time to either abandon ship now or demand that RIM perform a serious about-face....

I’m afraid I’m leaning toward the iPhone now as well… sorry BlackBerry, it was fun while it lasted.
