BlackBerry is to the Enterprise what Apple is to the Consumer. Neither knows the other market well enough, or has proven they can be successful in what isn't their expertise. IMHO, BlackBerry can survive if it refocuses on what it doe

Samsung makes pretty hardware, BlackBerry doesn't. I'm not sure anyone buys a Samsung device because it's running Android OS.

Being a former IBM'er, I can tell you this, there is nothing altruistic in their motives. They invest billions into research with plans to reap the rewards. Health informatics, in Canada is brutal to say the least. See eHealth disas

I have paid for express postage, line-bypass at a club, 'rush' passport service, expressway tolls and many similar services, so why wouldn't I as a serious job-seeker, pay to have my application move to the top of the pile?

In one organization where I was a manager, our HR policies limited the contractors we hired to 'two terms,' 36 months. If I wanted to keep that person on staff, I would have to wait 12 months before I could bring them back. The
