I can see this beneficial for BB, as they are "sinking".

I can also see this helping Samsung in terms of beefing up TouchWizz. Also in finishing up Tizen with QNX (which by the way is awesome).

And not to forget the penetration to the auto industry.

But $7.5 Billion is a big figure. Maybe they'll settle at $6 B, which seems rather fair considering the purchase of Palm and Motorola (by Lenovo).

1) Patents
2) Talents
3) Product improvement
4) Share Holders

...if you can display that your company is making investment for a stronger future, then your share holders would be much happier.

Its better to spend some money even on a loss, rather than having a boatload and not spending any of it. Cause share holders would walk away, which would cause the company value to drop significantly.


But don't worry about it Dave, Blackberry have come out and denied that they were in talks. So QNX is safe from TouchJizz for now.

I personally think iOS and Android are fine with 1GB for those mobile Apps.

2GB is excessive at times, the bottlenecks are someplace else.

However, with these new 64-bit processing, 2GHz Quad-A57 cores and new 700MHz GPUs.... those new LDDR4 4GB RAM.

Things should finally hit desktop and console performance.
