    Was just at my reps store and he checked inventory at Ingrim Canada, all are showing inventory however all sizes are listed as "end of life" (or which ever term you want to use) even though they are showing stock of 4000+ 64GB and 400+/- 16GB with 2000 on back order. Expect (not confirmed) to see specials coming around as the launch of 4G roles closer. The buy price for a dealer sure was a steal at $168 for a 16GB though

    $168 is better than the price I saw at Ingram Micro. Sure you don't have dyslexia?

    actually, I do have dyslexia so very possible ... click on each item and it will show you that they are being discontinued ... or end of life or what ever you want to call it again ...

    Wonder how long before the 16GB drops to $99 now that there's no more price-matching since it's been discontinued.

    99% I don't know how large BB10 will be. Might have to sacrifice a few apps or trade them off but why not.

    Well, the PlayBook 32gb is perfect for my needs and wants. I just hope this isn't the beginning to an end for the PlayBook.
    Yes, I think so

    I love my 16gb playbook, I do run out of space quite fast with video recording, but heh, it's still a Damn fantastic tablet nonetheless. Maybe soon enough I'll get a 32gb one if I decide to sell this in the next 3 or more years and get the simple card 3g playbook at 32gb. Go go research in motion!! Soon enough, we might be seeing 128GB models!!

    With 16gb you only get what.., around 10gb for personal data/apps, right?
    Because in my 64gb it says "total storage 59.4GB"

    and along with future OS updates that total storage might get smaller along the way..

    They should just add a storage card slot like Android tablets have.

    If you have a BB you can already use the card in it for some storage. Hopefully they will add more function to that.

    I really wish RIM would make some sort of an announcement officially - the speculation on twitter is that next week, it will be the 32 gig; and then the 64 gig. And we all know what happens to speculation on twitter - it eventually makes it way to the media as fact and soon, we will be hearing stories that the entire Playbook line has been discontinued.

    RIM should be a little more proactive, now that this email is out there, and state emphatically what they are doing.
