How bad is the "BlackBerry" situation?

BlackBerry is cutting more jobs. Yes, it's happening. The Canadian smartphone maker is anticipating a loss of $995mn when the second quarter results will be out this week.
Approximately 4500 jobs, that is 40% of its workforce will be cut. This was somewhat expected seeing how poorly the company was performing and its back to back efforts to jump back, failing, such as the Z10 model smartphone.
BBM is now almost officially available on three platforms and if it is any consolation, it possibly being a success could help the save the company.

Bad News for BB fans: A possible sale of the company is being evaluated as an option :/

Stay Tuned!
