@ John
Today, you're right that BlackBerry's are more prevalent with corporate customers, and have been for good reason. They are great devices for many reasons but, like the iPhone, not perfect.

Apple has already passed RIM (6.9 Million units v 6.1 Million units) this past quarter. How can you call RIM dominant?

I should add, I do own one, covet the 3G version, and think it's a beautiful phone. But there are reasons people will prefer other brand, flavors, styles, carriers. And Nokia and RIM have been, and will continue to satisfy those needs. How profitably and for how long is a more interesting question. Apple won't make the cheapest or have 80 models to choose from. There's something for everyone out there. The high of that market has been redefined, for sure, but there's plenty of customers (billions) to sell in the fat of the bell curve.

Good question. First, I wouldn't panic, there's plenty of market share to go around. The iPhone, like a Porsche, isn't for everyone. They should make sure they understand who their products are for and make sure they're delivering on those key points better then the next guy.

To answer the cover, in a word, no.
CPB awareness/perception campaigns for a company like Microsoft will not change who they are or how they behave - let alone produce 1st rate products that earns trust, relevance or any other label they seek.

Premature question, it depends on how useful the changes perform and the only way to answer that is to experience them.
