They need to release an android phone or two. Get with the times.

Also RIM OS has had a couple bad quarters in north america. Their smart phone marketshare (the only one that matters) went from like 20% to 10%.

Look at the Windows Mobile OS %! They have lost 66% of their market share in less than a year! Im sure someone would delight in posting that in the Microsoft forum. I would post that if I felt like it, but im going to save it and wait for their financials.

Don't put too much stock in that graph. It's tracking ad requests recieved by AdMob, not actual usage or marketshare of mobile OSes. So it can give you an impression of where the market's going, but it may also be heavily biased towards certain platforms. iPhone and Android look way stronger here than they actually are, while RIM is heavily underrated.

It's also worth noting that AdMob just got bought up by Google.

That is true, and id want to see multiple sources to make a definitive claim that android and iphone are decimating the mobile OS market. However, all the momentum i've seen has been from android and iphone OS. None of my friends (all in the IT biz) care for RIM anymore. RIM is losing mindshare and momentum that I know for sure.
