Why does the author think that RIM can't innovate like other companies have?

Indeed. This industry is overrun by people making bold predictions of what has already happened.

Despite being Canadian, I've never owned a Blackberry. I have moved more than one organizations away from Blackberry, because their existing model was archaic.

I applied to the company once many years back and they never even called (clearly the root of their problems today).

Yet of course they can (and are) change. The PlayBook looks like a very interesting product, and QNX is bloody beautiful. I keep my mind open to the prospect that RIM is going to come out with a superstar.
