Saving yes this could be the device that ends ends up saving Blackberry.

They have an enormous hill to climb.

Because.

Let's be honest mobile phone space right now is all about fashion you have to wow consumers is there going to be enough new features in Blackberry tend to wow consumers although -- -- drop that Samsung.

I -- I disagree with and I disagree with the Blackberry is the business.

I've got long fox has them a we use them -- emailing and texting.

That's what we want them -- it's so and the -- is.

Blackberry is up against that same pressure right now if they can come out with a wow operating system just like Microsoft did and might be able to carve out a little bit of that mix.

And maybe start to gain a foothold.

When you're up against Samsung in Europe against apple and android and -- and the iPhone you are in a world of hurt right now I think -- many years behind -- -- -- allow us today all right.
