Research in Motion stock falls after company delays arrival of new phones next year. But the real problem for Research in Motion stock: Loyal BlackBerry users are jumping to other smartphones.

Yeah it's crapberry. It's really only popular in the assholes of the world these days.

I have specific reason to hate RIM :lol

Girlfriend had one of these, and the fucking beeps and bloops drove me crazy. Sometimes she'd fall asleep without putting the thing on silent and i'd try and figure out how to mute the damn thing, but the OS is fucking distinguished mentally-challenged and it made me feel like a gorilla trying to do science. Eventually I just put the damn thing in the microwave when this happened.

Not really, owning one though usually is a douche signal round these parts.
People who own these tend to be douchebags in suits with bluetooth headsets that have power lunches.

Well, as long as you have a logical reason for wanting less competition in the industry while tens of thousands of people lose their jobs or investments.

Buttons are awesome, touchscreens are not. True story.

Fuck apps. I have a laptop and video game systems to play games on. The BlackBerry is a fucking COMMUNICATIONS device, and it does that very well.

Touch keyboards are useless on the bus here, I wish somebody would make a new non-shitty (i.e. not made by Dell) Windows phone with a real keyboard.

My wife still has a Blackberry for work. She doesn't have a choice. Company pays for it, though.

I've only ever had one Blackberry and it was fucking fantastic.  It was rock solid in quality and while maybe a bit cumbersome it could do absolutely everything I needed.

The only thing I'm envious of wrt RIM is their blackberry service bundle. Unlimited data at a flat rate is something I really want as all the providers here bill per meg or cap size :/
