Were the CEO's of Blackberry there to DELIBRATELY CRASH BLACK BERRY?
Here's the thing. Three years ago, RIM announced that sales and profits had doubled year-over-year. Subscribers were signing up in droves and the company was poised to explode beyond its traditional corporate base into the consumer space. Since then, Balsillie and Lazaridis couldn't have done a better job of driving the company off a cliff if they'd cut their own brake line and floored it.
When you look back on it, it's hard to believe it wasn't all part of a plan. Really.
