    What a disappointment. I didn't buy my PlayBook only because of expecting to get BB10, but the problem is that since BB10 there's nearly no app development for the PlayBook anymore. I always look with envy at all these new shiny apps being released for BB10

    This makes the PB essentially as dead as HP's TouchPad. The TouchPad is going to receive an Android emulator if PIC and OpenMobile get ACL to work. Then I can use the same (Android) apps on both devices

    Thank you Blackberry for selling 100K playbook units in the first quarter of 2013 and now telling those owners to F!@# off!

    I'm impressed with your business model. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out why your stock is down 20% before trading.

    They still lie and they still shoot themselves in the foot. BBRY will not be in my upgrade future.

    Call it knee jerk but the Q10 is going to have to go back as it just doesn't do what I need it to do

    BB gave up the tablet war.

    Smart decision or suicide note? We'll see.

    Meanwhile, my PB continues to be loaded with sideloaded android apps. Nothing new.

    Another BlackBerry betrayal to their fans!

    Was confirmed in the beginning of that it will now it.

    And I still have to trust them that the bugs in BB10 will be fixed?

    Shame. I was looking for the really nice features on bb10 in tablet form.

    It's not that i don't want the PlayBook.. but just that for my day to day life including work I do need a tablet with more features.

    Sorry blackberry

    I'm curious if they'll end up releasing OS 3.0
    If so, update the android runtime, and everything will be ok

    did people really expect BB10 would come to Playbook? lol... It's BlackBerry, they have 11 engineers that can barely do only one thing at a time (fragmented OS10 update releases), and their slogan is "coming soon later this year", get real people.

    If that is the case they should have said but........ As it is I'm sure they pizzed off every pb owner except true fanboys who will spin it as some kind of positive

    I've got three PB's (16, 32, and 64). I'm already using them less and less but hoped at least for an upgrade to the browser since that is what I used it mainly for).

    Now I think I'll just load it up with kids movies and pop it in one of the Otterbox cases and give it to the kids and find a tablet that will actually get some use.

    Unfortunately, that might be an iPad mini as I've owned two Android tablets (Galaxy Tab and Nexus 7) and both left me unimpressed resulting in their return.
