The iPhone. RIMM still has opportunity to expand into countries with new markets. But with the next generation of smart phones, RIMM is likely to start to lose market share they have long dominated. While many want to point out that iPhone and Blackberry are different product niches, in reality many in corporations see it as an either/or choice, since both are primarily aimed at the user wanting a phone with pager and email. RIMM will still do well as a company, but hence at some point it will falter as a stock, because sharing that market means deceleration of growth, and that means reduction of the P/E ratio multiple, and that means lower stock price. Full disclosure: I am now short RIMM.
