RIM is obscure and unknown in the rest of the world. I think it would be yet another mistake as it would exemplify the distorted view over the value of America for Nokia.

BB is on the brink on collaps, total collaps. Anyhow, Nokia is not interested in BB as they already have a clear path now and they will be a player whhatever happens to the death of BB. WP is the way for BB to go, othewise they will be takeb care of the undertakers, perhaps bancruptcy before Q1 2013. BB is very much almost a wrecked tanker without a compass.

They have virtually nothing worth buying at anywhere near current prices. RIM will carry on burning assets to try to rebuild itself without doing anything of substance (in the same fashion as Nokia did - rearranging the deck chairs) and might eventually get bought up by a foolish private equity firm or something at rock-bottom prices.
