I'll just put the first paragraph of the article (WSJ Blog Post).

"You’d have thought a 50% drop in Research in Motion’s share price between February and yesterday afternoon would have priced in a lot of bad news, yes? You’d have been wrong. It just keeps getting worse by the hour."  WSJ Link

I really can't see how this is a surprise to anyone. RIM's phones suck, they suck really really hard and I haven't met a single person who disagrees with this. This company had such a great lead on every other smart phone and then they just blew it. I'm certain this company will be used in business schools as examples of what not to do for many years to come.

Problem:
Internet won't work with Blackberry simulator.

Solution:
This one was a crappy crappy fix. I hated it largely because I hate Blackberry. Maybe this will prevent everyone from having the same issue. I will list the things you need to do in order to get the simulator to work in windows.

1. All of the install packages I'm about to list can be found with a simple Google search, I recommend always getting the latest versions.
   
• JDK
• BlackBerry_Email_MDS
• Blackberry Simulator (which ever simulator you want to simulate)
  
2. Install all of these in the order listed above
3. Now you need to add and Environment variable

• Click start button
• Right click "computer"
• Click "properties"
• If it's windows 7,  Click "Advanced System Settings" then click "envrionment variables", If it's XP click the "Advanced" tab then click "Environment Variables"
• In "System variables" Click "New" and in "Variable Name" put "JAVA_HOME" and for "Variable value" put the path to your java folder
  It should be something like this "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_24"

Now run the MDS first, then start up your simulator. If the MDS starts and then disappears quickly it is not started. It needs to stay up. If this happens you probably didn't put your environment variable in correctly.

And now after all this BS you can surf the internet on your simulator that will surely be off market and outdated by iOS or Android in about 13 months.
