What critics are saying about BlackBerry

The BlackBerry evolved into an array of handheld devices that rapidly conquered its sole target: the business market. By the mid-2000s, it had become the most successful tech-communication device in history, reaching, by some accounts, nearly 45% of the market share.Blackberry is edgy and very much of our time; a comedy of avarice about a place where good ideas are shredded by greed and ambition.
