8.4% *whistles* man that's gotta hurt.
It's just like what happened to Nokia, except when Elop was hired stocks rose high. I'm starting to think maybe Nokia will pull through with some nice exclusivities and bleeding-edge technology with WP8.
In the meantime, RIM has to sell itself.
Though there are no buyers at this time (maybe HTC but they just went into an agreement with IBM), so instead they will sell their IP and staff to random companies; ie disperse!

NEXT: Mr. Heins announces that BBX / Blackberry OS 10 will be dropped as that platform is failing, and RIM will transition all their devices to WP. Tune in for this episode on February 11th 2011! (err, 2012, of course)
