Re: Can BlackBerry Move from Execs to Everyone?
RIM is and always has been reliant on their word-of-mouth "executive" user base. They haven't done any marketing I can even recall. Try imagining a RIM "iTunes-like" TV spot that touches tween-ers and other Facebook users (not lurkers).

What experience/successes does RIM have marketing to a finicky consumer crowd?

Are they not already in second place in the Smart Phone market?

Sales up 112% in the last year.

It does look like they are making inroads.
