    This doesn’t even warrant a post on the blog at all. BGR only posts this to get a rise out of everyone…I’m convinced. Maybe HP should just buy RIM and combine them with Palm and sell it to all of their business customers..,

    I just switched my wife from a BB to EVO 4G, she can’t stop taling about how much she loves this phone. I also have EVO now have no need for the following digital camera, flip video, ipod, nav, and in more and more cases, a computer…4.3″ screen and so easy to use…

    bye bye rim…apple? Android might be #1 by mid next year

    Sorry guys, I have to wise you up on something.

    Anyone (and that includes me), that has time to post on BGR about phones is a sad nolife. At least the guys who run BGR get paid for their time.

    In case you hadn’t noticed (watch the news late Thursday), RIM is doing just fine selling average smart phones to average people all over the globe. That’s all those folk with a life.

    Rather a lot of them in fact. And those average phones don’t cost that much.

    And here’s why. Because once you’re hooked on BBM it’s very difficult to be weened off.

    Trap all the average folks into using BBM and pretty soon everyone will have a BlackBerry, buzzing alongside their smart flashy iDroid.

    Or they’ll be out of touch, and anyway, that old BlackBerry doesn’t take up much room and costs next to nothing. Might as well have one of them as well.

    Geez these posts have a lot of Bitter Bob’s and Betty’s out there. Regardless of what you say RIM is or isn’t they are still going to churn out phones that they think are relevant to their subscriber audience. If you don’t like them, then don’t buy them.
