IMO, MOT is a least still a year behind RIM's current products. Motorola has failed over the last few years in this line of business (two-way). Even MOT's own executives have said this over the last few months. ( I have nothing against MOT ( other product lines)..I have a Motorola phone etc. & MOT invested in CIC etc.). MOT has spent bigtime in SE Asia & has lost a large % of their business there, over last few years. It seems they(less flexible etc) can not move as fast as RIM to change their products in this area. I have posted a lot, because I have been trying to find out how RIM's sales over last quarter are going...it's hard to find out ! ( I am concerned with coming quarter earnings..company says they are comfortable with earnings estimates. I think April to July will see vast - hugh increase in RIM's products sales; & over 100 to 130 new employees added). MOT's new plan with GEMS is their attempt to catch up, & will take a lot of time. Note : MOT was down $3.25us on April 19; & again down April 20 by a dollar. I still think Mitchell has other motives for posting here. I am just a small investor in RIM, & several friends ( non SI members) have also made small investments in RIM too. Ron

Hi Salva Read this From: +Mitchell Thursday, Mar 11 1999 5:17PM ET Reply # of 758 Ron you must work for or hustle for RIM. For every posting you make the suckers come in to buy your stock. With more news from you, this baby will come down to where she started. It seems the stock is over priced, a 100+ P/E, really! Investors do not be fooled! IMO no apologize needed if any Mitchell should apologize to RON Salv I own lot more then 1000 over 5000 Ron Keep up good work Garry
