RIM: Our Competitors' Out Of Date Tech Is Obsolete
Think RIM has a bit of a bias in claiming that disconnected PDAs are dead? This is, of course, a company that makes their living on connected PDAs. Even more to the point, however, is that just about everyone knows that disconnected PDAs are a dead end these days, just as no one would even think about buying a computer that doesn't have some way to connect to a network any more. So, I'm curious: which competitor out there is claiming that disconnected PDAs are the wave of the future?Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
