What Hacker News says?

  1. This post from a former QNX marketing VP appears to disagree with you: http://saunderslog.com/2010/04/09/rim-didnt-buy-qnx-for-its-... "QNX has long been looking for a partner with whom to enter the mobile space. For example, almost 10 years ago I was the marketing VP at QNX for a short period of time. Even then, QNX CEO Dan Dodge thought that the real prize in the embedded OS market was the mobile handset."
