    That looks a little laggier than what we saw at CES. An earlier build perhaps? What is this from, some RIM meeting or something?

    You can hear people in the background talking about the battery only lasting two and a half hours depending on what is running and that they haven't optimized it. CES videos showed about 5 hour battery life - more support for this being an earlier build?

    Edit: Not the final browser either in the video.

    Sounds like a meeting with developers.

    "Moved the date from Jan 30 to March 15th". Hopefully that means the free playbook deal is generating so much interest they want to keep it going, and not that it has generated so little interest that they are expanding the dates out of a need for more apps.

    That video has to be from the last few days. Look at the CNN site at 7:06, there is a picture of the guy that shot Giffords.

    Keep in mind, to get better battery they probably have to sacrifice speed/power in some way. I would hope not much because it does seem very smooth in everything we saw at CES.

    Since they announced this change, does that mean they are thinking of a release date AFTER March 15th for sure then?

    The announcement just says that is the deadline for a free playbook, NOT the deadline for your app to be available on the playbooks launch. The "Available at launch" thing seems to be Crackberries position, not RIMs.

    If it is only the deadline for a free playbook (and, again, that's all it says on the official blackberry announcement) then there is no reason the release date can't be before March 15th. If it is the date for your app to be available on launch, then I'd guess a March 30th release is their way of sticking to a Q1 release window....
