Blackberry Is Dead

The recent outages of Blackberry servers in the UK and the Middle East has left several BB users affected. The servers are at the core of blackberry services and when server goes down - all the communication stops. Do you believe that the Blackberry phones are dead and unless they innovate; it's going to be incredibly difficult for them to survive in the longer run? I personally find BB keyboards harder to use than touchscreen devices. Of course, blackberry has introduced phones that combine the best of both touchscreen and physical keyboards. 

What do you think?
