Is that the reason this thing has dropped so badly today? One thing about RIM is that they're really being innovative at all. They're really not being all that creative with their products and after awhile, it'll kill their brand. You can really trust product loyalty so long before others come out with really different things, and especially in the tech industry, you become a chaser. RIM has a really good product with their keyboards and push system, but after you get past that, personally I find their OS irritating, and the trackball 18th century. They just gotta change in the consumer market, and that's what's scary about holding their stock - their refusal to change.
