New York Times:
Jim Balsillie and Mike Lazaridis, who made the BlackBerry a leading business tool but then presided over its precipitous decline, said they would step down on Monday as co-chairmen and co-chief executives of Research in Motion.
BWHAHAHAHAHA!
These consequences seem to be appropriate.
“BWHAHAHAHAHA”
LOL Oh, real mature, Dalrymple. 🙂
Does this mean amateur hour is over?
I find it funny that RIM had two COOs too.
Not really. “The company named Thorsten Heins, currently one of RIM’s two chief operating officers, as chief executive. He pledged during an interview on Sunday to follow the strategy Mr. Balsillie and Mr. Lazaridis set in place.”
Jim may have been at NAMM but The Beard was at the RIM HQ in a windowless room ‘making changes’ to the RIM leadership.
BWAHAHA? Very insightful.
I’m with Jim Dalrymple on this one.
And two COOs? Hilarious 🙂
*facepalm*
I have no words.
We’ll see if it’s too little too late. Oof!
I’ve got pimples with more experience than this new guy. He’s decided that the marketing is the #1 problem – idiot!

“[New CEO Thorsten Heins] pledged during an interview on Sunday to follow the strategy Mr. Balsillie and Mr. Lazaridis set in place.”
Definitely too little.
