technology is always changing, BB had it's time just how the iPhone and Galaxy are popular now.
matter of fact you'd be surprised at how much business people still prefer BB's for their emails and how many people rather BBM over iMessage.
not to mention that most corporations are setup only for BB's (right now) alot of them are currently converting over to have iPhone and Android use.
IMO Palms were the worst piece of shyt's ever, every time I saw a customer with a Palm, I'd call my boy Luis to help them I fukking hate them.
