WE DON'T CARE, WE HAVE A 1.5 TRILLION DOLLARS ECONOMY FOR 34 MILLION OF US...WE ARE MADE! SO, STOP CRYING FOR A NATION OVER ONE COMPANY...BECAUSE OF A PRODUCT YOU ALL NOW WORSHIP AND WE WHO MAKE IT HAVE LONG SINCE MOVED PAST! CRY FOR YOURSELVES and ur J J C lives!

DheBuck: The reason a lot of us use a BB is for nothing else except the special internet bundles it has...if andriod or iphone has bundles I think they'd be popular too among nigerians

acidtalk: Apple RULES anyday anytime only that typing on touch screen is always an issue for me.

4bobo: you need to care because if they cant maintain the constant profits as they used to, they will go bankrupt and the bb may be difficult to maintain and may be dead . The problem is that if other top phone makers especially android developers got the idea or programing skill and platform that will work 100 percent like BB for free, and rim doesnt upgrade new platform and technology fast, then that may be their end. Remember what happened to HELLO MOTO.

Flyboy Zee: @$tunna,
In as much as Naija is still trying to sort itself out, I'll not sit down and allow one misguided wannabe to run riot on my beloved country. No matter what.

This is Nairaland for Nigerians & FRIENDS of Nigeria. This is not maple syrup. Get that into your phuking head and get the hell outta here fast!

For one, I don't think you are real. Two, you must be nothing but a wannabe that did everything & anything to become Canadian & now that Immigration has stopped harrassing you, you are thinking that you are the ish, get real and get a life. Whether Canada is a R-I-M or not, what I know is that my dearly beloved Naija is a Work In Progress and I'm very optimistic that we will get there someday even if it is not in my lifetime. The people that built the Canada you are strutting stuff about must have gone through worse situations than what we are going through now in Naija. Read your history books Mr. Wannabe.

what was your point again Mstcheeew

ollah1:

Its only been used by nigerians living in canada so they can keep up with folks living in naija

Decryptor: Are u ok? Internet Bundles is what you get from your service provider( ie: MTN, Etisalat etc) and that's only when you pay for it. It does not come with your device. HABA

$tunna:


One authorized dealer in Ikeja...should Nigerians in Canada bow down because of that when there can be 10 authorized BB Stores in A single shopping mall in Canada?? By the way...you mean an authorized dealer for a BB assembled in Mexico city?? Lol

Only upper middle class people in Nigeria can afford an Original new BB phone without stress, k! That would be top 1%

alaoeri:
SLOT not only in ikeja, there's slot in abj & other places, am talking about slot bcuz that's what am familiar with & sure there 'll be other dealers as well. Am not upper class nigeria but am on my 3rd bb all new from slot, dude wakeup change υя mentality about nigerians @home ppl are really making it here.

alorauzoms: another useless thread

ekt_bear: I hope Microsoft or somebody teams up with RIM, tries to salvage this situation.

There is something a bit sad about seeing a formerly great brand dying..

Abagworo:

Hahaha! Nigerians @home are a million folds richer than those in diaspora suffering.

$tunna:


Yeah...?? Well, news flash for ya dude, the average Nigerian in Canada makes same monthly salary as your Senators in Naija...not the stolen part, but the legitimate salary part as I saw on a thread here sometimes ago!!

That means they do not need to keep up with people in Naija!
Thanks to fake BB and stolen used BB phones, where would Naija find BB phones they can afford?? Smh

Did you know that average home in Canada is like 1/2 million dollars and you need to times that by 155 to convert to naira!?!

So, I think you get the picture...don't even go on that route dude

$tunna:


Same Naija I visited a few weeks ago?? But then again an average Naija person like you in Naija thinks hard work that builds and helps keep a nation developed and keep advancing is suffering!!!

Hahahahahahaha!! stupidity

See why Nigeria is so underdeveloped? Don't risk ur life for nation building and don't work hard to achieve anything...go to university and sort professors with cash or ur p u ssy and get a job with the fake degree u get after where you get a free car and a free duplex after 3 months of work and live large forever...carrying a made in Canada BB running programes designed by Canadian secondary school kids; wear American clothes and speak with fake Ameriacan acent; and then drive a used German or Japanese made Jeep stolen in the streets of Canada...is that not the Nigerian model??

You seemed to mistake houses built by Nigerians outside of Nigeria in Nigeria as showing how wealthy Nigerians in Naija are!! Funny, eh! Confused, eh!

$tunna:


We have or we will move pass BB as a very dynamic and advanced Nation...so no need to take tylenol over this that is none of ur headache

My fav phone was Nokia some 15years ago...then it was Samsung and then Apple and may soon be Samsung again, so it's not a huge deal...!

In the tech world, getting to the top is hard but staying there is even harder and we already know this as Canadians because we are at the forefront of new tech always! Canada is an ultra wealthy and innovative nation and will survive long after BB phone makers have gone out of business!

Y'all need to get this simple truth!

paulokwudiri:

Lol..Nigeria is undeveloped but still ya country.Guy wetin u wan form sef.By the way r u from Canada?no worry when u die make them bury u for Canada since na ya papa Land.

ollah1: I'm still wondering why you can't copy paste with the keypad on a bb and why you phone gets hot when you turn on 3G.

fr_evangel:

Hellooooo!!! This is NAIRALAND not CANADALAND! If your Canada is so super what are you doing here?! You sound like you just got released from a Canadian refugee camp for illegal immigrants. Where you a victim of child trafficking?

fr_evangel:

You sound like a die hard BB fan. I am doing this post from my BB, I bought one because my company gives me 50% discount on BIS subscription, buh seriously I think its a hardware version of yahoo messenger with over bloated prices.
If u own a Android phone or Iphone then u can talk about functionality.

$tunna:


It doesn't matter, we'll pull another rabbit out of the hat very soon...and we still have one of the Worlds's most advanced economies and BB or not, we'll be just fine...since we do not put all our eggs in one basket!!

Our Country by its very nature is a research in motion and you can quote me on that...we innovate and we move on, there's no stopping us - CANADA, EH!!

paulokwudiri:

Mumu wey go Canada hate im country.When u die make them bury u for Canada.

I love Canadians. So sensitive about their country...especially when jibed by their big brother to the south

yankidelta:

At least they have something they can beat their chest too never mind their market shares on d fall.Now,what has Nigeria with our population of 160m and counting and our vast natural resources produced? Crude oil that the same Onyibos help us drill,send to their country and sell all forms of derivatives to us?Or is it Cassava bread?

I usually get pissed when we try removing the spec from other's eyes when we have a forest covering ours.

Mtsheeew!
