I recently tied success in the imminent BlackBerry vs. iPhone struggle to market segmentation.
Of course, there’s also first-mover advantage.
Kudos to RIM for timing the release of the “Pearl White” version of the BlackBerry Pearl on the heels of a week’s worth of iPhone buzz.
I wonder how long it will be before someone makes the iPhone skin available on the “Pearl White” BlackBerry Pearl.
RIM has significant first-mover advantage and also the potential to capitalize on the iPhone marketing buzz.
Apple needs to move quickly and deliver a very solid 1.0 version of the iPhone, as they’re already in catch-up mode.
