Re: Microsoft may buy RIM & the Blackberry franchise

Maybe that explains the heavy advertising for the MLB playoffs on TBS.

MS already has its OS on many smartphones - HTC, Palm Treo, Pantech, etc.
I hope RIM doesn't cave to the Borg that is MS.

As a user of various Microsoft products and a BlackBerry, I hope RIM will find a way to stay independent of Microsoft. I would be more comfortable sourcing these products from separate vendors. Can't see benefit for the end user in consolidating these businesses.
