This is not a inside BlackBerry tip. 2.1.0.1088 released day after registration info released and today registration info (PTCRB - dated DEC 3) for 2.1.0.1282 released. So this is just an inspiration...

"OS version 2.1.0.1282 Radio version: 2.1.0.1283"

Thanks RA! It is a small move but a welcome one when it drops.

[NFLPLAYBOOK]

Is there any real updated features that will come before BB10? I'm not expecting anything until then except bug fixes.

[jamesharmeling]

Thanks for this tip Sir Roy. I hope it drops on my birthday: Thursday!

I'd be happy with browser improvements personally. The checkerboarding is a little crazy on some sites...cough...crackberry...cough.

Probably fixes the inability to update apps in App World.

You have...cough...the same...cough....bad cough that I do it seems. I've gotten used to clicking on Crackberry, browsing around my Playbook and coming back after about 30 seconds.

But I digress! I'd love to see some browser enhancements, a bridge update and....wait for it....BBM Voice for the Playbook!

edited to add: You folks really are dreaming if you think that they will tweak the Browser at this stage!

Turn off javascript and it's really quick It also turns off some of the ads on the side which I constantly accidentally click on when trying to scroll...

How is this done?

[katesbb]

How is this done?

Swipe down from top bezel when in the browser
Tap Settings
Tap Content
Tap Javascript Off

You'll lose some of the features of certain sites though, so it's not a perfect solution. But it does make a huge speed difference on many sites.

Not having any issues with updating on 3 PBs at home and several at work. Three updates last week alone. I hope it gets fixed for you.

[Techno-Emigre]

I have been having bridge issues once a video ends. Might be some small fix. I'll take anything I can get. I am sure it isn't any big, difficult or impossible change such as being able to sync to Outlook USB. That would be too complex, too daring, too futuristic, right?

Only one app gives me an issue and I've seen other threads about the issue. Believe Bla1ze started a thread about a fix a while ago.

[CairnsRock]

It would be nice to have my appworld account unblocked. My contacts list working and my messages working properly.

Now you are getting greedy! I hope you get your wishes.

[larsonage]

battery has been terrible for me on the current OS

[BB_Bmore]

Maybe bbm will finally come now that it's officially synced to bbid. They have been testing bbm on the PlayBook internally for quite awhile now.

[rotorwrench]

Only one app gives me an issue and I've seen other threads about the issue. Believe Bla1ze started a thread about a fix a while ago.

I've seen a few posts on it and have no doubt you have an issue, being why I said I hope you get it worked out. But in you saying apps, not app, I assumed you weren't getting any updates for any apps. Since it doesn't appear to be widespread, I'm not sure this coming update will resolve it, but hope it does. What app isn't updating?

[Luckyman6886]

Great ! I like it

[bigopti]

I still can't see Facebook events and birthdays in my calendar, I hope that gets fixed next to browser, email and appworld performance.

The reason for the checker boarding is that sites are badly built, the Playbook browser is perfectly fine, sites like Crackberry need to be built better.

They could start by combining the amount of css files in to 1 file, minifying the css, reducing the amount of http requests again, for JS, really no need for so many.
There's no need for over 20 requests before content is even parsed by the browser!

Sites like this remind me of Blackberry's current OS, just messy, and when something new is added its a quick and dirty little "fix", the way the "blackberry count down timer" has been implemented in the source code is a prime example.

That is issues you raise when you have checker boarding.

I never have checker boarding on Android. Or almost never.
