They are teetering on the verge of irrelevancy. Of course, that has been the case for years, but no one has come along to replace them. We’re reaching ‘peak innovation’ in the OS/Mobile Device space. Now they’re just cannibalizing and we’re gonna see price deflation. As with everything, someone is going to come up with something new that will breakout from the pack. I doubt it will be from Apple or Microsoft. If I HAD to guess, I’d think Google, but it will probably be someone we wouldn’t suspect.
Who knows.... Blackberry has actually been developing some great devices lately. A couple of years ago, I thought they were all but dead.
