Trump mentioned $778 million at the rally - Q drop 778 is very interesting.

Lack of innovation was the MSM reason for Blackberry failure. The real reason, I don’t have a clue.Probably too secure for deep state thugs to get all of our information.
They destroyed Blackberry because it was unhackable is what I remember hearing.
👆right here.
Like Microsoft, stupid late to the party. Got crushed. Buddy of mine who still works in MS tells me how Balmer was useless and stupid, he looked at the iPhone and called it ‘stupid’. Lol.
Sort of like how nuclear tech is old as hell, which from what I hear is actually far more secure than more modern systems due to less abstraction and QoL features.
There is nothing stopping a company from making their own smartphone, with their own OS, and their own App Store — several exists today. The problem is adoption, and high cost.
I never had a Blackberry, but my sister did and I loved the feel of sliding that tiny Missile Command trackball controller on it. It felt neat.
That's a different subject.
I remember asking this question a few months ago and someone said it was due to security. Blackberry wouldn't play ball like apple and Google, therefore it was destroyed.
Lack of innovation? Probably did have plans to innovate, but was not being given resources.
"We'd like to to touch screens. Well we need to order 200,000 glass gorilla touch screens for our first batch. Oh, we can't? Because the only suppliers are in china? And they are being told to not do business with us on that particular item? Well, guess we have to stay with physical keyboards!"
I like the physical keyboard. Touch screens do not like my fingers.
It's why video games are so much easier to play with a physical controller than they are with a smartphone.
Tactile sensation matters.
Mechanical keyboards for the win!
ABSOLUTELY
It was (is?) a victim of hostile hedge fuk shorting as well. I wonder if a BCG member is on their board?
Maybe, but they would never admit to it.
I've always thought Nokia was the same. Remember when Nokia and Motorola were about the only brands of mobile phones? I have work connections with Nokia and I know what they are like - I can easily understand them being obstinate and refusing when told to backdoor their hardware. Now they're gone.
A potential theory, but I think it’s probably a simpler one. Apple made a much more superior product, which the masses wanted to sell their kidneys for.
If BlackBerry didn’t rest on their fat asses and look into the future, they should’ve seen how touch tech would be the future. They could’ve then be the one to take the touchphone mainstream.
Apple wasn’t the first to make a music player (touch enabled), and they were not the first to make a touch phone, they just packaged a lot of goodness into a device AND hypnotized the public with marketing and superior user experience.
Remember when BlackBerry came out with their own version of a touch screen phone? it was too late … Apple already set the standard.
Blackberry probably was not member of the "club".
A tiny screen compared to iPhone or Android is what did them in. I loved the buttons on the keyboard. My fat fingers hit 4 letters at once on my iPhone, then auto correct puts down some embarrassing word I didn't mean to type.
Dang, why the down votes? I loved my Blackberry, except for the small screen.
Forget the down votes mate, some people here are not necessarily mature but trolls or have the IQ of the Hollywood red neck types.
The BlackBerry keyboard, I remember those. There were times I was grateful for a keyboard so I could type on that small brick, then there were times I hated the keyboard.
But ultimately, and now as I look back… why the hell was I so damn occupied with typing a full on document, or e-mail, on my phone? Was it so important I had to use a damn keyboard?
Perspective 😉
Never happened to me, but something like 'dick' instead of 'dark'?
That word wouldn’t appear if you didn’t use it so much in other context!!!!
;)
Didn't Obama fight to keep his blackberry?

IIRC, Biden owned a section of Water Island which is a stone’s throw from the popular Disney snorkling destination, Little St. James island, and it had had a tower on it that supported Blackberry.
