Following yesterday's Business Update by RIM's CEO Thorsten Heins, I figured we'd better follow up fast with a CrackBerry Podcast to sound off on all the news. It sure is a weird and challenging time in BlackBerry history. Honestly, I'm soooo excited for BlackBerry 10 and what it promises to deliver, yet at the same time we're dealing with RIM being in a tougher spot than we're used to seeing as far as business operations go. The next few months leading up to the launch of BlackBerry 10 are going to be interesting to say the least, as things will likely be even more challenging for the company until the new generation products hit the market.
Joining me on this show are Adam, Bla1ze and Umi. I knew me and Umi would be talking lots on this one so we let Craig have a show off - I wanted him to save his voice for the next one where we'll deep dive into Mobile Fusion and take an enterprise look at BlackBerry following BlackBerry World.
Disclaimer: The podcasts gods hated the color of my t-shirt today, so decided to punish us with choppy video on only my video feed. Not sure what's up with that, but try not to let it bug you too much. It's still a show worth watching. Enjoy it!
