We also have a large investment in BB mobile devices (1000+) as well as own MobileAdmin. With the recent news of Blackberry's immanent decline, and further exacerbated by Gartner's recent recommendation, our internal procurement officer has stopped any new purchases of BlackBerry devices within my organization. I totally understand your frustration. I too have been a long time BlackBerry user. But I don't blame Solarwinds for not wanting to spend tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars building an app for a platform that could possibly not even exist a year or two from now. I'm sure if Blackberry turns the company around and starts taking large percentages of market share back Solarwinds might reconsider their position. They are in the business of making money and turning profits afterall. If you were a mobile app developer, would you invest your life savings into blackberry right now?
