- Well guys, I've got a little bit confused by the prices of these 2 gadgets.

BlackBerry PlayBook - Tablet - BlackBerry Tablet OS - 16 GB - 7" TFT ( 1024 x 600 ) - rear camera + front camera - Wi-Fi, Bluetooth: Amazon.co.uk: Computers & Accessories
And there's also a 32GB PB available for �484.99

My question is, why the �135 differential in price between 16GB and 32GB?05-22-11 08:10 PMLike 0 - 05-22-11 08:19 PMLike 0
- In the USA they were 499/599/699 for 16,32,64. which into pounds is 306/368/429 - I would gather the differences are VAT and import costs?
Compare with BlackBerry PlayBook to hit UK shores on June 16th - Buy at Carphone Warehouse/Best Buy, Dixons Stores Group, Insight & Phones | CrackBerry.com
which listed 399/479/559 as their prices......05-22-11 08:24 PMLike 0 - Here, the difference is a flat $100, so �135 seems a bit much. But to answer your question, yes, the only difference between different versions of the PlayBook at the moment is the amount of memory.
Now that I think about it, I remember seeing a story about Amazon dropping the price of the 16g PlayBook in the UK, maybe the reduction didn't apply to the 32g and 64g versions. I wonder if the fact that the versions with more storage seem to be selling better than the 16g over here has something to do with it.05-22-11 08:24 PMLike 0 -

these are what these companies are charging due to the fact they`ve imported them. they arent out in the UK yet so these arent `offical` retailers.05-22-11 08:38 PMLike 0 - simple. amazon also acts as a sell thru for other retailers. if you look, 16Gb is from digigood, the 32Gb is from smart-deals. you`ll also notice different delivery costs.
