PlayBook in quotes? ;) I don't think so but it has the capability to unzip some files now. I don't have any rar. to test it though.....
I believe androzip+android player does the trick...
bumping in hopes of any new info on this topic
You can download the Free RAR Extract Frog from download.com
Free RAR Extract Frog - Download.com
Just open the RAR file you want to convert in this program and it will be quickly converted. Then you can proceed to sideload your bar files...
But it has to be done on your PC...don't know about converting within Playbook...
I think I may have read that Ghost Commander can do it. Or maybe it was another file management tool? Sorry I can't be definitive, but it gives you a direction in which to go, eh?
ghost commander ? guys i am lost on your convo! can someone be more specific Please!! :(
ES File Explorer is an excellent file manager able to unpack rar files, but it's an Android app that needs sideloading.
You can grab it here:
Blackberry Playbook Android Apps | Good e-Reader Android APP Store - Playbook App Market
And you can use this tool full of awesomeness to do the sideloading:
PlayBook App Manager
Or this one, in case you don't use Google Chrome:
DDPB – PlayBook Tool
I second the ESFE recommedation. Awesome tool and a must have for anyone serious about file management on the PB. And it's free! :D

There's a program in app world called Uncompressor.
I used AndroZip (sideloaded) and it works fine with rar.
