“For business e-mail users who want to better
manage the increasing number of messages they
receive when out of the office, BlackBerry is a
mobile e-mail solution that provides a real-time
link to their desktop e-mail for sending, reading and
responding to important messages. Unlike other
mobile e-mail solutions, BlackBerry is wearable,
secure, and always connected.”

“We believe in the simple not the complex. ..We
believe in saying no to thousands of projects...We
believe in deep collaboration and cross-pollination
of our groups...we don’t settle for anything less
than excellence in every group in the company, and
we have the self-honesty to admit when we’re
wrong and the courage to change.”
- Tim Cook,Apple Inc.

“In Waterfall, value gets calculated by
completing a phase or a portion of the solution.
You complete many Waterfall phases without
actually producing any working software. Is
that really value? Or is it just a myth of value?”
