Equally, there are phones now which are not being labled smartphones, which several years ago would of been.

Yeah, my current phone runs Symbian OS, has the ability to add all sorts of apps, and do fancy things, but isn't a smart phone.

Last week, Palm announced their development program and their platform has become more open. Now it's free to develop and publish an app under certain conditions. They had to do that in order to have a chance to generate a momentum that resembles Apple's. Some analysts are predicting that Android will be the #1 mobile platform as soon as 2012, thanks to Google, thanks to its availability on multiple hardware and its growing app market. So, my criticism towards RIM was from this point of view. I just can't believe that RIM is not taking this seriously or they're snubbing the growth and the potential of the non-enterprise market. It's just strange... |

Usage patterns vary and trying to write off the parts that don't suit your argument, the strengths and weaknesses of the various devices are different, but that doesn't invalidate things since a smartphone is a multifunction device not simply a mobile browser. Mind you, if somebody wanted to be malicious, you could easily claim that web traffic was higher on the iphone because they had to logon to websites to read mms until recently or maybe if they were in new york they were simply unable to complete a call properly and decided to do something else with their phone. ![]() Quote:
What I find strange is why some people seem so eager to declare RIM RIP, they have come up against bigger competition in the past and have still survived, not to mention the obvious fact that the more competition in the market the better for us as customers. |
