Just saw this on CNBC. Too little too late, methinks.
- BlackBerry 10 looks nice... but yep, I think too little too late.ETM
- That said, they are seeing growth in emerging markets. So it's not all gloom and doom.ETM
- I meant hiring a celebrity CD. She's not a real CD (too little), and they're desperate (too late).monospaced
- Ahh. Well with BB lately, you need to more specific. Many "too little, too lates."ETM
- This is specific to Alicia Keys getting a RIM job, as indicated by the thread title and topic.monospaced
- Oh go fuck yourself, Mono. An asshole as usual.ETM
- And if you can read between the lines, the Alicia Keys thing is a setup for the BB10 launch during the Super Bowl.ETM
- So it's all related.ETM
- I was NOT being an asshole! You said I wasn't specific, but I didn't think I had to be. Then you insult me? Jeez, look in a mirror.monospaced
- in a mirror. Obviously this is part of the launch.monospaced

Let's just put celebrities in charge of everything. New CEO Miley Cyrus.

If they can swing a deal with carriers to offer a new BB10 phone for $0 or even $49 with contract, I think they'll grab a few curious customers who are nostalgic for BlackBerry.

Was Jay-Z too busy?

Well, on one end, she probably gets a lot of money to use outdated technology and say that she likes it, but on the other hand, it's going to be REALLY hard to not get caught by paparazzi using an iphone.

Does she know that these people have really long lenses and can snap photographs from really far away?
I guess it worked for Dr. Dre, he does not allow cameras or unscheduled photographers on any sort on his studio while he is working, so he doesn't get caught not using that piece of crap w his name on it.

Do these appointments even last more than during a brief marketing stint? Is Gaga still doing anything with Polaroid? Will their be any mention of Alicia Keys after the BB10 launch they plan for the Super Bowl?
