Always bloody is :(

 
 
Posted by rkopsie Saturday, Jan 14, 2012 132 days ago

Woo-hoo!

They give the finger to the rest of the world, as usual. We buy blackberries, we pay for the service, and we deserve it.. Thanks RIM.

Has anybody gone to tbe effort to find out from RIM why before assuming some kind of conspiracy. It may be that there are legal reasons that are too costly or insurmountable to make it worth it.

 
 
Posted by m0n0t0k Sunday, Jan 15, 2012 131 days ago

Well most likely that in America they are loosing marketshare like no tomorrow and the rest of the world they are doing fine .
Therefore we who support RIM don't get any goodies :(
Guess it makes sense for them but it is so unfair :(

 
 
Posted by seb.hebert Sunday, Jan 15, 2012 131 days ago

Wow! A lot of missinformed people...

Clearly this is for legal purposes. RIM doesn't "hate" the rest of the world... No one here has any idea how these sort of things work and the amount of legal mombojumbo that goes into it. Just to give you an idea: why do you think the contest isn't opened to residents of Quebec? Well for a few reasons to start... a good portion of them having to do with the INSANE language laws in the province.

Quite likley, but you dont see ANY promotions, competitions or anything else of there ilk outside the US North America.

 
 
Posted by seb.hebert Sunday, Jan 15, 2012 130 days ago

True, but I guess the official BlackBerry store doesn't count. Or the BBM Music launch party in London...

These things, when done internationally, probably cost 5x more than their initial profit return.

 
 
Posted by Yandar Saturday, Jan 14, 2012 131 days ago

Why do I bother to read these RIM competitions when i know its always North America only EVERY )~%$@ing TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Like the VAST majority of BB users are sick to the back teeth of this discrimination and bias from RIM.

 
 
Posted by seb.hebert Sunday, Jan 15, 2012 131 days ago

wow... stop crying and get informed why its in NA only...

 
 
Posted by eKafara Saturday, Jan 14, 2012 131 days ago

I'm from Canada living in Australia right now, I wonder if I can enter.

 
 
Posted by quen-quen Monday, Jan 16, 2012 130 days ago

Only for residents in US and Canada. If u have family in Canada, I think u can get the price!

 
 
Posted by Halifax Guy Saturday, Jan 14, 2012 131 days ago

Aside from RIM snubbing their noses at the rest of the world as the USA has done pretty much from its birth, what about contests for those that don't believe in Twitter and Facebook?

 
 
Posted by cletis Sunday, Jan 15, 2012 131 days ago

Exactly! While there may well be legal reasons for the NA restriction, there's no excuse for the Twitter requirement. The result is that us non-Twits feel discriminated against and unloved.

 
 
Posted by seb.hebert Sunday, Jan 15, 2012 131 days ago

Ever heard of no participation necessary? Twitter is a social network that easily allows people the share information. There is no better venue for a contest which seeks to promote the brand.

If Cottonelle tissue paper was having a sale, would you complain that it isn't fair because you wipe your arse with Charmin or some other brand?

Take it or leave it...

(not trying to be a dick but all these complaints are starting to piss me off...)

starts day before my birthday........gonna have to be on the loook out for questions to answer.......RIM would be nice if other Crackberry users around the globe could enjoy the contest

 
 
Posted by yaletownboy Sunday, Jan 15, 2012 131 days ago

not a tweeter...how do u add this tag? do u just type this in your tweet?

 
 
Posted by blue_k Sunday, Jan 15, 2012 131 days ago

Yup, you would just add #JanuBerry to the end of your tweet.

 
 
Posted by DANYALJADOON Sunday, Jan 15, 2012 131 days ago

:P NO Comments we are blocked

sexy phone

 
 
Posted by blue_k Sunday, Jan 15, 2012 131 days ago

Can I also get that wallpaper without the #JanuBerry in 320x240?

 
 
Posted by gedubraks Sunday, Jan 15, 2012 131 days ago

:( no asian love....

 
 
Posted by xtremesniper Sunday, Jan 15, 2012 131 days ago

Wow, bunch of whiners on here. Participation is not mandatory. Yes, it would be nice if it were available to the world and without Twitter, but give me a break. It's a contest, not a census. Heck, normally this would be USA only if it weren't a Canadian company.

 
 
Posted by seb.hebert Sunday, Jan 15, 2012 131 days ago

+1!

 
 
Posted by Heavens1 Sunday, Jan 15, 2012 131 days ago

When a competition is marketed on Crackberry then it needs to be stated up front on the main page of the article which countries the competition is open to.

I live in Australia and shouldn't have to go hunting through all the dross of the rules and regs to discover that I am ineligible to vote.

Oh - yes and we have Twitter here too ..... most countries in the world have access to it ..... but just cause you've got Twitter means naught when you don't live in a country open to the competition!!!!!!!!!

 
 
Posted by xtremesniper Sunday, Jan 15, 2012 131 days ago

This, I can agree with. They should mention who the contest is open to right up in the post itself.

 
 
Posted by McNibbler Sunday, Jan 15, 2012 130 days ago

Please post the wallpaper with the JanuBerry. You did an excellent job! Thanks so much (640x480)

"If the eligible entrant resides in Canada, he/she will be required to answer a time-limited, mathematical skill-testing question without assistance of any kind, whether mechanical or otherwise, which will be administered by Sponsor at a pre-arranged mutually convenient time, before being declared a Winner."

wtf...

 
 
Posted by quen-quen Monday, Jan 16, 2012 130 days ago

Only U.S. and Canada :(
