RIM has been phenomenally successful catering to high-end users, but that's peanuts compared to the 700 million plus consumer e-mail accounts.

A million dollars! Why, that's catering on your show for a week!

Plus the ships lack decent catering service.

Our Yahoo! users want to access our services from all of their connected devices. Together with RIM, we can make it easy for the millions of BlackBerry users to have access to their favorite Yahoo! products and services while on the go. By combining Yahoo!'s services, which are some of the most used mobile products in the US, with the truly compelling BlackBerry platform, we are giving consumers a powerful and fun mobile Internet experience.

Compared to running apps on a smartphone or, more aptly, an iPad, the app experience on the Samsung Chromebook Plus is distinctly subpar.

Users have no one to blame but RIM. They've been given a reasonable royalties offer, but they have refused to take it. BlackBerry owners have every right to be upset.
