Needham & Company maintains a 'Hold' on Research In Motion Ltd. (NASDAQ: RIMM).

Needham analyst says, "The implosion of a once great company raises an inevitable question. Will RIM follow in the footsteps of other great companies that simply disappeared? RIM’s inability to respond to the disruption caused by the iPhone has increased the likelihood that it will. But BlackBerry’s hold on the enterprise market and BlackBerry Messenger make it unlikely. We continue with a hold rating, but are cutting our fiscal 2012 estimate from $5.15 to $4.35 and our 2013 estimate from $5.35 to $3.35."
