RIM is obviously being seriously mismanaged. Blackberry is a nice device - but it has fallen back behind iPhone and Android, and RIM somehow cannot get their act together.
Maybe I should rethink my conviction that top management has only minor impact on the company's success. RIMs CEO Lazardis recently showed off a new product: the Playbook. Just look at this guy: how convincing does he come across? A guy who keeps his hand in his pocket while talking to me appears insecure and arrogant (same thing in most cases).
The most recent faux pax: RIM's Podcast App has been around for MONTHS and it is still only available to users in USA and Canada. It is not a translation issue. Not even our friends in UK and Australia can download this thing.
If such a simple thing is missing, what other features are withheld from us? How can a company with global player aspirations treat the global audience like that?
I just got my Bold 9780, but I am starting to think that it was a mistake...
