Good to hear and definitely going to be interesting to see how the next year unfolds because, if you think about it, my guess is that all of the OS7 phones will be out in time for the holidays, good. Even if they don't have the top phone, the one most talked about, they at least need to be a player and make a strong showing. With multiple OS7 phones on the shelves, they accomplish that.
But, to then have the first QNX phone come out in Q1 2012? Might just be the jolt RIM needs. Q1 is for some retailers, the hardest quarter of the year. It's post holidays, people are paying off credit card bills, setting aside cash for taxes, resolve to spend less, and as for the manufacturers, their new products are all coming out in Q4...Now, having 2 new products (OS7 & QNX) released so closely together may take some sales from one another, there is that risk, but with the hype of QNX, my guess is that instead it is going to be a huge hit and allow RIM to maintain or even build on the momentum gained in Q4 at a time when Android and Apple are slowing.
