Unless they RADICALLY change their product offering, and do it very well, they are dead...
The only chance that RIM has, is to partner with Google on a phone which is both Blackberry and Android. Take the Torch phone, have a Blackberry "skin" on top and some of the Blackberry functionality, but it is running on top of ICS or JB.

Otherwise totally dead.
