SMRPodcast #102: Number One Somewhere

February 2, 2012 by Robb Dunewood Leave a Comment

Check out episode #102 of the SMRpodcast, Number One Somewhere.  We talk a lot about Research in Motion and the BlackBerry this week and I point out that RIM is doing a lot better around the world than most folks in the U.S. give credit for.   Rod also tells us about the problems he was having with his Google Nexus and why he returned back to the iPhone 4S.
