Current Usage
Although the Icon disappeared, the QNX operating system is alive and well, if particularly different from its earliest versions. In addition to being present in over 100 vehicle models (navigation systems, telematics, speech recognition, bluetooth hands-free systems, etc.), it also powers the Cisco CRS-1 and RIM's BlackBerry PlayBook.

Famous quotes containing the words current and/or usage:
“We set up a certain aim, and put ourselves of our own will into the power of a certain current. Once having done that, we find ourselves committed to usages and customs which we had not before fully known, but from which we cannot depart without giving up the end which we have chosen. But we have no right, therefore, to claim that we are under the yoke of necessity. We might as well say that the man whom we see struggling vainly in the current of Niagara could not have helped jumping in.”
—Anna C. Brackett (1836–1911)
“...Often the accurate answer to a usage question begins, “It depends.” And what it depends on most often is where you are, who you are, who your listeners or readers are, and what your purpose in speaking or writing is.”
—Kenneth G. Wilson (b. 1923)
