BlackBerry Jam Americas is next week. They have already told developers that they would be the first to see the new SDKs that include a lot of new features. It would make sense for them to target 2.1 (even if it is a new beta) and a Dev Alpha update around the same time.
If they release the new SDK and no updates for device testing, it won't do developers much good to try and code for the new changes.
They did say 2.1 would release in the summer, and September 20th is the last day of summer. Seems possible. Also, bbempire is legit with good sources.
Not exactly.
Fall starts n the Northern Hemisphere on September 22, 10:49 A.M. EDT. So RIM could release is on the 21 or even early on the 22 and still make their summer promise.
I think it would be really funny if they released it on the 22nd at 10:48am EDT.
BlackBerry Empire has a post stating "It has been a while since the BlackBerry PlayBook OS has gotten an official update, but rumors swirling around say that we should be expecting PlayBook OS v2.1 on September 20th."
I don't give much credit to other sites, so has anybody around here heard such a thing?!?
Tuesday has been the traditional release update day for the BlackBerry PlayBook. Thursday is too close to the weekend when support staffing levels are reduced.
I can't connect to the update server today..... Errors out!
Hold your horses, cowboy! The unavailability of the 'update server' is not an indicator of a pending software release as we have witnessed such temporary connection issues in the past.
Anyways, keep your fingers ready, OS update drops tomorrow morning!
Ah, a man/woman and his/her mind lost any basis in reality waiting for BlackBerry Tablet OS 2.1. Surely the newspaper headline will be more kind to the afflicted.

And the .668 BLUNDER did not follow that tradition and see where it got them (at least I don't think it did).
ROTFLMAO!!! Thanks, I needed something to laugh about.
It is sad that we can find such continuous humor in Rim's inability to deliver anything on time. They continue to be a joke even with the new management. Releasing and pulling and stalling and refraining from explaining anything....

If .668 did not release on a Tuesday, the irony would be delicious. Unfortunately, I do not remember the day of the week on which BlackBerry Tablet OS 2.0.1.668 was released and I am too lazy to launch Microsoft Windows and BlackBerry Desktop Software to gather the log files which might indicate the date .668 was installed on my tablet.
Not to add to the rumor mill but i hear that jimmy Hoffa and db copper will announce the update
That's a ridiculous rumor and you should be ashamed of yourself! Everybody knows that Jimmy Hoffa is buried in Grant's Tomb and DB Cooper is flying for Delta now. Jeesh!
