Blackberry, ditch the OS...it's holding you back.
I loved my Moto Droid Pro back in the day. I got a decent ecosystem, compact portrait qwerty package, and serviceable screen.
Your problem now is that your ecosystem is toast. Trim the fat in your development house, package a nice Android OS with some throwback GUI cute shit to your old blackberry feel, and move on with your life as a hardware player.
- pinaceae 12y agohow many Android HW manufacturers are profitable? BB is stuck between a rock and a hard place. no obvious way out.
- Grazester 12y agoIts not Android that makes them not profitable. By your rationale Blackberry should then be profitable.
- pinaceae 12y agothey can't use the OS and apps as a differentiator. reason why Nokia went with Windows - which is also questionable. going with Android reduces you to a pure hardware OEM. see the Windows laptop world how great that is. my rationale is that switching BBOS with Android solves nothing for BB.
- jdhawk 12y agoThe issue is that BBOS stinks, is not on developers radar, and a major driver in the decision of "what phone to buy" is "does it have all my apps?" BBRY is what, 1/8th of its high? 1/10th?
