BlackBerry 10 not even as good as iPhone OS 1.0 or Android 2.0, says insider

A BlackBerry insider reveals that RIM lied about the cause of BlackBerry 10 delay.

Recently when co-CEOs Mike Lazaridis and Jim Balsillie said,” that products have been delayed because they have not received LTE (Long Term Evolution) chipset - they were lying.

A BlackBerry insider revealed that ,”On the contrary the insider said, ”RIM is simply pushing this out as long as they can for one reason, they don’t have a working product yet” .

The insider further said that BlackBerry is not even a  match for the archaic iPhone 1.0 and Android 2.0 platforms. All this makes RIM’s current situation even more miserable.

For all of us who are waiting for BlackBerry to come out with flying colours from this difficult time now will certainly have doubts on it.

Recently when RIM refused any takeovers or any kind of ventures, it was indicated that people within RIM are attached to it. But we can get a bettr understanding that all is not well at RIM.

As expected RIM has not taken to the allegation well and has indicated it a attempt by rivals. In a press release RIM stated,

"RIM made a strategic decision to launch BlackBerry 10 devices with a new, LTE-based dual core chip set architecture. As explained on our earnings call, the broad engineering impact of this decision and certain other factors significantly influenced the anticipated timing for the BlackBerry 10 devices. The anonymous claim suggesting otherwise is inaccurate and uninformed. As RIM has previously explained, and as Mike Lazaridis reiterated on the earnings call, we will not launch BlackBerry 10 devices until we know they are ready and we believe this new chip set architecture is required to deliver the world class user experience that our customers will expect. Any suggestion to the contrary is simply false. We appreciate the interest in our future platform and we will continue to work hard to deliver that platform as soon as possible. At the same time, we also remain very excited with the success of our recently launched BlackBerry 7 smartphones and we believe these products offer a very compelling choice for both new customers and the almost 75 million BlackBerry users around the world."
