Ever heard of a company called SIRF Technology Holdings, Inc.?
No, I didn't think you did.
They specialize in Global Positioning System chips, such as those used in the BlackBerry7520 and BlackBerry7100i.
Seems like SIRF had a real bad day on Wall Street yesterday- dipping as much as 13% on the face of investor disillusionment at slow earnings forecasts offered by the San Jose, Calif. based company yesterday.
Now what should BlackBerry users make of this, especially since SIRF also makes GPS chips for Garmin, Motorola as well as General Motors' OnStar service?
Perhaps a general assumption that orders might be down because most everyone who wants a GPS-enabled device- BlackBerry or no- already has one?
Hmm, maybe we are too early in the upgrade cycle for those GPS users to feel compelled about replacing their unit?
