Title: RIM: You’re Done Here

In Motion is done. They’ll be bought in the next year or so, their products will roll into whoever buys them – Microsoft, most probably – and they’ll go the way of Nokia, Danger, and countless other mobile platforms. They’ll exist independently for a while and then be subsumed. It’s over.

I doubt it very much, I can't see them lasting now HTC has really stepped it up. If RIM embraced Android they might stand a chance, I guess... but Nokia were too slow on all of this and look at them. Dead.

OTOH, Sam, HTC have been taking some stick for poor servicing lately.
