Apple boss Steve Jobs went off on one yesterday after the company announced yet more record profit figures.
He basically tore into all the opposition saying they didn't stand a chance against the might of Apple.
RIM's Blackberry was in his line of fire. He said iPhone sales have now overtaken Blackberry and RIM would "not recover in the foreseeable future".
Jobs also dismissed manufacturers - like RIM - who're planning smaller 7"-screen rivals to the 10" iPad as "dead on arrival" because the screens are too small. In fact, he said rival companies should issue sandpaper with their devices so users could sand their fingers down to be able to use the screens.

RIM's co-CEO Jim Balsillie has now issued a statement in reply. I've copied and pasted it in full...because it's good:
