RIM doesn’t like Apple, makes it obvious UPDATED

26 Feb

What you see above is a brand new commercial promoting Research in Motion’s first touch-screen Blackberry, the Blackberry Storm.

How do I know that RIM doesn’t like Apple after viewing the above commercial? Well perhaps the black berry shooting through a literal apple has something to do with it.

Oh RIM, with your pranks, let’s just wait for Apple to fire back.

Update: Apparently this is actually an ad that was presented to RIM and they declined. Bummer, I would have loved to see this on the TV.

RIM seems to have misplaced blame. It’s hardly Apple’s fault they released the rushed and buggy Blackberry Storm where it promptly damaged RIM’s solid reputation and tanked in the marketplace.

Now, it seems like everyone is looking to the Palm Pre to topple the iPhone. RIM loses this round, catchy marketing aside - the Pre has all the hype right now.

RIM you can blame no one but yourself. Get back to the drawing board you can still win this.

[...] RIM is ready for the application business and its store, the App World, will go live starting today at 10:00PM EST. The chosen name should be a hit too. People are already familiar with Apple’s successful App Store, so an App World will be immediately linked to the applications-for-mobiles concept. Will RIM’s app store receive the same amount of traffic as the original idea? Tell us how you BlackBerry is handling the new applications! [...]
