- I have several things that I am unsure about with the playbook
1. What will be the Uk and US pricing for 16,32,64 GB models of the PlayBook
2. What release date should I expect in both the US and UK
3. Via Blackberry Bridge on the Wi-fi model of the playbook will one be able to use the data connection from a blackberry smartphone to go on the browser and use the playbooks other internect capabilities on the move ?
4. Are the Email, BBM, Calendar apps only for users which have a blackberry device

2.) Q1, we're all assuming sometime in March but February could happen
3.) You are correct, at least from what the RIM employees said at CES2011
4.) they are unless 3rd party developers are already on it and RIM says they'll become independent also "as the platform evolves"01-26-11 03:30 PMLike 0 -

It's officially called BlackBerry Tablet OS and it's based on QNX Neutrino.

- Yea I think the acquisition is a part of RIM's current market shift strategy, along with buying TAT. It will be interesting to see how long it takes for these new companies to make a complete impact on rim devices. I said long ago if they could just figure out they can keep the blackberry security and functionality but also have the liquid smooth and responsive UI's that the more modern devices have then they would regain thier former glory.01-29-11 09:30 AMLike 0

- But don't you think that it is starting to become too little too late. Don't get me wrong, I think it's a fantastic move on their part, shows they're realising they need some extra meat to the bone that is BlackBerry, but I don't know if it'll be enough to tempt people back.
I feel I am right about this because the general RIM position hasn't changed, which is "we aren't going to give the people want they want to spend money on until we are darn well ready to." Many years ago they got away with this paradigm; they were the only real player in town outside of the fledgling iphone from apple. No, you aren't in Kansas anymore more, and you're little dog too....01-29-11 10:30 AMLike 0
