“On the one hand, sell through of the Torch 2 at AT&T appears light, with no sell-outs (similarity with the existing Torch could explain why). On the other hand, sell through of the Bold 9930 and full touchscreen Torch 9850 at Sprint appears healthy, with 20% of stores sold out of the Bold 9930, reflecting its novelty/popularity”, he said yesterday.
RIM has carved a pretty decent niche in this industry with 67 million-strong subscriber base. I can’t wait for RIM’s quarterly results to check the revenue numbers.
RIM’s upcoming QNX-powered phones, however, are rumored to be ablile to run Android apps , via the same Android player that is promised to appear on the BlackBerry PlayBook by the end of the year. RIM is allegedly already testing the player to fit the Android apps to the different screen sizes and resolutions of the new BlackBerry devices. No official comment offered at this time from them. So let us know if the Android apps grace RIM’s new Blackberries in 2012, will this entice you to get one?
