The iPhone was outsold by RIM’s BlackBerry lineup 2 to 1 in July

Ah the iPhone dimwits can stop jumping up and down about the report iSuppli put out less than 48 hours ago. You know, the one that said that the iPhone outsold all other smartphones sold in the United States during July. The C level executives at RIM were quite miffed at that statement and double checked their numbers. What iSuppli should have said is that there wasn’t one BlackBerry model that outsold the iPhone, but instead it was the entire BlackBerry family of products that outsold the iPhone. Way to manipulate figures iSuppli.
Way to go RIM! Feel free to send us a swank new BlackBerry Pearl 2; I’d love to throw in my 2 cents about the man who should be executed at point blank range for selecting the fonts your devices use.

How may phones do RIM have in their portfolio?

No clue, but what point are you trying to make? That a RIM device failed to out sell the iPhone? Isn’t that what Nokia does, they sell the $1000 E90 and the $20 1100. Market share is about tackling all aspects, not just one.

One problem with this comparison is that the iPhone is geared towards consumers while the Blackberry is for business users.
