Raidium,

That is too bad. As a CIO for a large corporate company, we are looking for ways to accommodate multiple devices, especially the iPhone. As we are a large BlackBerry shop, it would be a no brainer if RIM sold a client for that device. Now are looking at switching mail platforms just to accommodate the iPhone.

So what was the job listing really for?

This is false. I personally wrote the opening sentence in that job description…the rest was added by someone else (probably someone trying to stir the pot). Internal RIM descriptions do NOT look like that.

Oh and the job wasn’t internal, it was posted on my website. It’s been taken down now, but if you managed to see it, you’d pick out what the job is really for.

Trust me, it has nothing to do with the iPhone.

Also, this story is several days old.

RIM is going to take off even more than it already has. They already have a loyal business following, and some how, they have been able to penetrate into the “casual” user segment as well; so many girls I know have a freakin’ Pearl.

If they made the UI nicer to look at and beefed up the media capabilities, then they will simply blow up -

RIM should feel need of updating its BlackBerry devices with latest operating system otherwise Apple and Nokia may be able to engulf its share
