So, RIM did a study

Gary Ng:

A recent study commissioned by Research in Motion has concluded it is cheaper and safer for companies to keep using BlackBerrys despite the proliferation of the BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) phenomenon.

RIM sucks balls. That’s why companies opened up the gates and let employees use whatever device they wanted. The other operating systems caught up and passed RIM and there is no turning back on that now.

    Well then, that changes everything! It’s back to Blackberry for my company. Heck, that should be their marketing campaign: “Back to Blackberry”. They could get the engineers who did the REO Speedwagon cover to rewrite “Back in Black”.

      lol, “Back to Blackberry” it actually sounds better than any marketing campaign i’ve seen from them. I think they might offer you a job….

    Other operating systems plural? Are you admitting scary malware ridden Android is better than anything RIM has to offer? :)

      Nope, I think we all concur here that it’s iOS that was the game changer, even for Google, who was at the time attempting to emulate the Blackberry.

    They say it’s “cheaper” and “safer”… They don’t say it’s “better”.

    Been a high volume of ball sucking around here lately. Not that it’s a bad thing … just pointing it out :D

    Irrespective of the merits of the argument, the homophobic, school-yard analogy is unwarranted, irresponsible and offensive. Time to show some maturity.
