haha oops silly me i just looked at my boxes and yeah they were blue.
hmmm what do you guys think of those many playbooks 16GB playbooks?
i guess all the other models are already sold out?
16GB vs 32GB and 64GB's not that hard which one you would pick.
they should donate us haha.
They had that promotion for a while where all 3 models were selling at the same price... It only makes sense that everyone snapped up the higher end models and we would be left with the 16GBs.
maybe these guys will price match the telus sale...
lol
Northland in Calgary.
They have about dozen of 32gb in the locked shelve. Went around the corner to Best Buy and nothing there. Just two demo units. Both FS and Best Buy had their PB display front and center so there is exposure.
Agreed... at least for the 64's... no Future Shop had them in stock a few weeks ago in cowtown when I was looking. Plenty of 16 and 32's at the time though...
Drop by my local Future shop and was surprised to see all the unsold PBs. No wonder RIM is discounting them. How many more does RIM have in stock?
At DevCon Europe either Thorsten or Alec said there are 25000 tablets reserved for developer conferences and other conferences. Without an accurate number of registered tablets we will never know anything about sales estimates.
The Future Shop up by Costco in north Calgary had about 100 x 16 GB playbooks visible in a lock-up in the tablet section when I was there yesterday. Strangely, they didn't have even ONE playbook on display, anywhere. Makes me wonder how they expect to sell these things...
Montreal suburb today (St-Bruno shopping centre), 32G @ $159 in one store, same @ $299 in store 20 feet away. In stock at both places. Was not on display at first location, but sales person got it out of locked drawer after I mentioned it to him. Go figure !

What store in the south shore had them for $159?
Just trying to figure out if we got the same store in the West Island.lol
@ balding1
This is one of those many aisle centre kiosks, did notice the name. Not a known carrier banner, the sales person mentioned they were representing 6 different companies (?). Funny that they did not have it on display, but the guy got excited when I mentioned the PB, and that's when he got one out of the locked drawer. Sorry I could provide more details, the boss was waiting and I had to leave in a hurry. But the lesson is that these gems may not be on display, but hidden somewhere in locked drawers. You simply have to take a chance and ask ......
when i went looking for a 64gb playbook last weekend, i couldnt find any in airdrie or calgary. lots of 16's and about half the stores i went to were sold out of 32's as well.
