Samsung in Talks to Buy BlackBerry for $7.5 Billion [Updated]

[Oletros]

BlackBerry actually has all the goods for a next generation mobile computing company. Better than anyone else.

Your "inhibiting innovation" statement is extremely ignorant. I'm more innovative with my BlackBerry Passport than you are with your iPhone.

Mike Lazaridis, get out of that body

I highly doubt this, and your comment on the contrary is more ignorant than you can imagine. What are all the "goods" you speak of that blackberry has?

BlackBerry's latest server, BES12, manages all devices, BlackBerry, iOS, android, and windows.

BlackBerry's messaging service, BBM, is cross platform. It's available for iOS, android, and Windows phones.

BlackBerry owns QNX. QNX is widely used in various industries in machines and devices. Most car infotainment systems use QNX. QNX is also used for IoT between devices.

BB10 is a true multi-tasking OS. It's a QNX micro-kernel OS.

All BB10 smartphones ship with an integrated file manager and removable micro SD card.

The BlackBerry Passport is arguably currently the best smartphone on the planet.
