In another devastating blow to Research In Motion, senior product manager Ryan Bidan has fled the company to join rival Samsung as their director of product marketing. 

Ryan himself tweeted the news.

Keith Pardy, RIM's CMO, left in March and Paul Kalbfleisch, vice-pres of "brand creativity," ditched the Waterloo BlackBerry maker in May. The company also announced it was streamlining operations by trimming its staff count, and a senior executive recently bashed RIM in an open letter.

So is Ryan's ship jump a surprise? Hardly.
