Thks Ron for another constructive post. My main point is -to keep this thread clean- no name calling like some of the other trash threads. Agree? If we dont agree-lets not even respond to those that are not constructive. OK-for your comments: You remember the article by someone in Globe & Mail idea -'that RIM had to prove itself'- that @100 PE -its pricy-and needs to grow at 100% growth for stock to keep pace. I love RIM idea- but remember its a Canadian company trying to penetrate the USA (look at BIDS-yesterday got abushed by Mark Hains in CNBC) What I really like is that being a snowbird (from MTL) down here in Florida-have seen the efforts Bellsouth has put into its TV ads showing off RIM's product. I like that-from the consumer side RIM is being given at least some good exposure(last few months) Now-if it doesnt catch on ,when Bellsouth rolls out next month-well? Know RIM has won best products award etc... But my other readings suggest RIM type products 'may not catch on' -cause it may be too cumbersome and small to use, battery life, etc.. We'll see. For me the next few months is make or break for RIM-thats my view. Will not be able to respond after this note cause am packing for return ride back home to MTL- Will catch up next week Rgds
