Blackberry accuses Apple of lacking innovation

BlackBerry 10 is about to debut in Australia, and BlackBerry CEO Thorsten Heins – a man seemingly exhilarated from the Z10 release – has spoke to theAustralian Financial Reviewto explain that Apple’s time as a dominant force is over.

Of course, his comments are ridiculously premature, given that BlackBerry has been suffering from declining sales, signal failures and overall bad juju for more than a year, whileBB10 was only revealed in January.

"History repeats itself again I guess," he stated. "The rate of innovation is so high in our industry that if you don’t innovate at that speed you can be replaced pretty quickly. The user interface on the iPhone, with all due respect for what this invention was all about is now five years old. The point is that you can never stand still."
