Motorola Q q9 coming to AT&T? {Engadget Mobile}
Mar 9th 2007 12:55PM Still no Q version without a camera? The boys at MOT are still wondering why they cant mass sell these to Corporations/Government. Mean while RIM laughs all the way to the bank with only 2 models in it's current lineup.
Intel planning low-cost chip for iPhone competition {Engadget Mobile}
Mar 7th 2007 10:53PM Hmm, lets see:
Sell about 10 million+ chips to iPhone competitors ready to take way, or worry about apple's 1 million initial iPhone sales .... someone didnt go to business school. Remember, Apple aint shit in Asia. America is also the shittiest phone market. We like cheap and free unless "We" are the hardcore real smartphone users ... *cough* blackberry.
Cool UIs dont really bring productivity unless you can connect easily to DATA. Past and Present points to Apple unwilling to roll with Corporate environments.
Boy Genius: BlackBerry "lost three years" with Apple iPhone {BBHub}
Jan 11th 2007 12:57PM Kill Blackberry? Yeah right
1) Camera is a no no for real corporate users sorry
2) Cant use one hand like any BB to check emails/sms? Stupid, look at ppl using a Dash or BlackJack simply grabbing the phone with both hands to check simple things.
3) No enterprise integration? That eliminates like 90% of BB market.
4) If there was corporate integration, can you selectively disable features (voice/sms/mms/wap) simply from an administrative application? Nope, sorry
5) Will it survive a standard 3ft drop test? From the looks of it, you have to treat it as fragile as an iPod. It wouldnt survive one week from a heavy user traveling.
6) Will Corporate IT shell out extra $200 for the ability to have 8GB of storage so the employees can listen to their favorite music they illegally downloaded? Nope, sorry.
Blackberry killer? Does that even exist even after this thing was revealed? Show me an iPod killer first.
