Just heard on CNN they predict Blackberry to end in 2012. Anyone else agree with this?

Seems as if everyone is moving towards Apple and Android. Amazing how Blackberry once had an entire market cornered and is now moving to a slow death.

Yeah i think that android has defeated apple and blackberry...
But in the end i think that everybody will die in 2012....

I don't buy into the Smart Phones. I think they're just the next shining things to buy. I'm sure that some people have a need for them, but I think most people don't need half the stuff on their phones.

They're supposed to be adding support for Android apps to the next (QNX) version of their OS, so if they do a good enough job on that, then it may give them a fighting chance. But sadly, in the longer term, unless/until they provide a compelling reason for continuing with yet another OS, who knows how long they'll be able to keep things going.
