That’s a bold endorsement if I ever heard one. As long as you make something that’s just good enough not to suck, RIM, you’ll do fine.
When is the tech world going to learn that the era of Microsoft is over? Being just good enough isn’t going to cut it in a market dominated by an Apple product.
We don’t live in a Mac vs. PC world anymore. It’s iPod vs. every other MP3 player. You have to design great products to compete.
And I seriously hope that’s an internal code name for the product, not the actual shipping name. Blackpad? That’s even worse than iPad.
