On a more serious note, glad to see RIM stepping back up to the plate. Their sales have stayed high, but it’s been on a raft of cheap, forgettable hardware that’s done little to advance innovation in the industry. I hated the BlackBerry I used to have, but I’d be pleased to see RIM pull a Microsoft and put together a compelling, next-generation system. And a WebKit-based browser? Long overdue, but better late than never.]]>Apr 20th 2010 12:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/20/blackberry-os-6-0-screenshots-and-details-leak-out/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/20/blackberry-os-6-0-screenshots-and-details-leak-out/

Do you want to spend the rest of your life selling sugared water or do you want a chance to change the world?]]>Apr 20th 2010 3:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/20/blackberry-os-6-0-screenshots-and-details-leak-out/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/20/blackberry-os-6-0-screenshots-and-details-leak-out/
Not sure why I was down ranked. The fact is, there is a mass exodus of Blackberry users. Their OS dated, and they've waited a long time to come out with something new. In the meantime you've had Apple, Google, MS and Palm coming up with come great stuff OS wise.

Like Palm, I think RIM has waited too long to come out with an updated OS. They're doing it after the fact that many people are leaving them behind. Palm made a big mistake of waiting so long to finally develop something like WebOS, instead of constantly pushing. ahead. Many of Palms customers waited and waited, got fed up and left. I think RIM has done the same thing.

But no I agree, they should just pack it up and quit....../s

I really think consumer will still want more. Businesses won't want too much change anyway, and they will still probably stick with RIM for the most part.

Personally, as a current BlackBerry Storm owner, it will be nice if this comes out in June/July, but I'm due for a new phone in August anyway, and the Incredible is still looking really nice to me right now. I don't plan on owning another RIM device (unless an employer gives it to me).]]>Apr 20th 2010 12:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/20/blackberry-os-6-0-screenshots-and-details-leak-out/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/20/blackberry-os-6-0-screenshots-and-details-leak-out/I didn't say they should just pack it up. It just seems like, as others have pointed out, this is a lot of just copying (not completely) of what other OSs have done recently. Aside from the browser (which has long needed an overhaul anyway) not too much has changed dramatically. It looks like they added universal search (or at least some kind of search to the home screen) and multitouch. Nothing new, revolutionary, or noteworthy, which is what they need to get ahead in the consumer market.

Is this a step in the right direction? Yes. But they need to have new features that Android and/or iPhone don't already offer that might attract new smartphone customers.]]>Apr 20th 2010 12:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/20/blackberry-os-6-0-screenshots-and-details-leak-out/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/20/blackberry-os-6-0-screenshots-and-details-leak-out/Apr 20th 2010 12:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/20/blackberry-os-6-0-screenshots-and-details-leak-out/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/20/blackberry-os-6-0-screenshots-and-details-leak-out/Apr 20th 2010 12:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/20/blackberry-os-6-0-screenshots-and-details-leak-out/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/20/blackberry-os-6-0-screenshots-and-details-leak-out/Apr 20th 2010 12:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/20/blackberry-os-6-0-screenshots-and-details-leak-out/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/20/blackberry-os-6-0-screenshots-and-details-leak-out/Apr 20th 2010 2:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/20/blackberry-os-6-0-screenshots-and-details-leak-out/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/20/blackberry-os-6-0-screenshots-and-details-leak-out/Apr 20th 2010 12:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/20/blackberry-os-6-0-screenshots-and-details-leak-out/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/20/blackberry-os-6-0-screenshots-and-details-leak-out/

RIM and Microsoft cater to the enterprise and Android is moving in that direction as well. Apple caters to the general user and just happens to have SOME enterprise support. If Apple had the enterprise features of the BB OS, RIM would have been dead long ago, but here we are today both still standing tall.

I dunno why everybody thinks that business are just slow to change. There is a cost factor involved, but people rarely think about that here.]]>Apr 20th 2010 1:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/20/blackberry-os-6-0-screenshots-and-details-leak-out/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/20/blackberry-os-6-0-screenshots-and-details-leak-out/
