Hi Mark I believe RIM has relized that they are lossing the market a bit fast and by licesing their OS to 3rd parties they can continue to generating revenues to their past customers who ahevgone to androids, windows and iphones. How? For example I would buy BBM app on my android just to continue enjoying communicating 'securely' to my BBM contacts which I had before migrating to Android. I think this will also give people who have never used a BB chance to get a taste of BB features and this might translate to future BB sales. I believe RIM could boost BB sales by lifting or reducing the cost CAL and BES licenses than licensing BB OS to third parties which reduces the from a fully fledged phone provider to another mobile application developer! They are doomed I believe. Just my two cents! On 1/6/12, Mark Mwangi <mwangy@gmail.com> wrote:
what I was asking was which manufacturer would be interested in using blackberry os when they have their own?
I don't think there will be a scramble for it. Ave used the Playbook before and its awesome hardware n software.

Not sure either, have never rooted a Play book. Wouldn't really encourage it. _______________________________________________ Skunkworks mailing list Skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke ------------ List info, subscribe/unsubscribe http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/skunkworks ------------
