- BlackBerry PlayBook battery life to be longer than iPad | T3 magazine
Just found this.
"The upcoming BlackBerry PlayBook, RIM�s first foray into the world of tablets, is rumoured to have a longer battery life than the Apple iPad.
The PlayBook has been mooted as a serious rival to the iPad and with a possible superior battery life, tableters on the move might just see this as a major plus point over the more expensive 16GB entry level Apple alternative."
This seems to confirm the excellent battery life and an entry-level price point below Apple's.01-25-11 02:37 PMLike 0 - BlackBerry PlayBook battery life to be longer than iPad | T3 magazine

My guess is that their testing is producing numbers equal to the iPad. Agreed, real world testing may produce different results. However, any tech company that doesn't simulate as close as possible to ideal real world scenarios will not be a long-term successful company. It's like new car "mules." There are RIM employees tasked with using the PB outside of their work spaces (ie. home) to work out the bugs.
The greater point is the "evolution" of the rumors. With a simple search, we can slowly put the pieces together. More and more your seeing info suggesting iPad or greater battery life. The biggest nugget in this article, to me, was the "more expensive iPad" quip, implying the PB is to start lower than $499US.
My apologies if anyone's a car salesman.01-25-11 05:17 PMLike 0 -
I wouldn't trust the VP of anything in a Press release before a product is released, VP's are politicians, that is how they get to be VP's
I would love this rumour to be true, BUT I can't see how the smaller size + greater horse power + applications running concurrently that the Playbook can last longer than the iPad 1.
unless they do a test Radio's off Movie watching keeping everything equal MAYBE then I could see it.01-25-11 05:27 PMLike 0 - NOPE!
