Blackberry CEO says Windows Phone and Android "Are not mobile computing platforms"


Blackberry CEO says Windows Phone and Android "Are not mobile computing platforms"


Blackberry CEO has been continuously trash talking the competition, including Windows Phone and Android.
Speaking to  Computerworld Australia CEO Thorsten Heins said Android and Windows Phone "are not mobile computing platforms."
Speaking to  Reuters earlier he said:
"The [BlackBerry] architecture we have built is true mobile computing architecture. It’s not a downgraded PC operating system. It is a whole new innovation built from scratch. It’s built for mobile."
He said the company therefore decided against extending its enterprise services to those operating systems.
This of course ignores that the Blackberry 10 QNX kernel is more often found driving your car stereo than your smartphone but I am sure Heins needs to hang on to every straw as the Blackberry boat rapidly goes under.
