On this RIMM call, stock up 17 bucks in after hours, but man the team sounds nervous as hell, due to more biz being driven by consumer vs. enterprise- it's they pretty much admitted they have no clue how the consumer channel is going to perform- "wildcard" si what they called it!!! Suh-weet huh?

So what do you think about future ramp up with this growing, but lower margin biz?

A: Uhmm I dunno!

nice RIMM

Some days I think Joe Weisenthal, Bess Levin, and John Carney are all one person that sign posts under different handles for appearances. Has anyone ever seen Joe Weisenthal and John Carney in the same place at the same time?
