Another executive is out of Waterloo, ON. Today, The Wall Street Journal is reporting that it has confirmed the departure of Brian Wallace, VP of Digital Marketing and Media. The report also confirms that Wallace has been scooped up by Samsung Mobile. This move comes amid a flurry of other departures from RIM recently, including the company’s chief marketing officer, VP of brand creativity (what?), and chief operating officer. Samsung confirmed the report, WSJ says, though the company wouldn’t make Wallace available for comment.

      Is that all you got?  What don’t you at least come back with something intelligent.   Not once have you given me an good response about anything… just “yo momma..” this.. and “you are a fag” that.   Like I said… you must be 14..  If not, I truly feel sad for you because you come off like a total idiot.  VERY TRUE STORY!!

        Well, unlike you, I actually have a life outside of your mindless comments.   On the bright side.. once you get done with your shift, you can go home and peep on your “step”sister in the shower…     Just make sure you wash off the grease smell first.

    @Scroat:disqus - you must be either illiterate or just plain stupid because I think I’ve told you about 20 times that I can’t reply to a thread of more than 3 posts.  I’ve tried Firefox, IE 9, and Operal Mini on my Blackberry… none of the above has that functionality… FOR THE 21st time!!  And again, you don’t have any valid points or arguments, you just resort to the blabbering insults from the 1990s..      Until you have something intelligent to stay, stay off your dad’s computer.

    ScottAtkinsonRIM has just about the worst digital marketing I’ve ever seen. They seem incapable of developing a consistent brand for their sites.For years inadequates like Wallace survived off the back of being the leader in their own market, and when the heat of competition started they were incapable of responding.Not only has RIM’s marketing failed to identify to senior management up to date market trends, they’ve also singularly failed to sell RIM’s value proposition and technical advantages in an effective manner.
