Or that's what I call it, where all your applications and what not crash until you pull your battery to power down the phone.

I'd like to see them do well, but they do seem to be going the exact same route that Palm went, minus the promising software that could save them. Palm's WebOS was almost enough to save the company, but poor marketing, delays, and the choice of an exclusive carrier deal with Sprint doomed them.

BB doesn't even have WebOS coming down the pipeline, just more glitchy software on underpowered hardware.

I'm sure they'll get by with business customers as a niche for a good while, but with Windows Phone 7, Android, and the iPhone all making significant improvements for business customers, even that will die eventually.
