Well, there is no way RIM is going to ditch their own OS, it is incredibly popular and well known amoung business users. They are already starting to add new features catered towards the general public, like Webkit browser, for instance. The only reason they could buy RIM is if they wanted to do their own line of consumer phones, and from what we have seen, Palm has not really taken off yet. So it would be better for RIM to focus on improving their own OS, dumb it down a bit for new users.
