I also read that in an interview at DevCon Head of Software portfolio Vivek Bharadwaj confirmed that Playbook will also be updated to Blackberry 10 whenever it comes out.
- RIM is not abandoning the playbook , in face its repeatedly quoting that its the forward to BB10 & central to the company's strategy
- There is still hope that BBM will land on Playbook via a future software update (given the current technical difficulties with its current implementation/design )
