RIM should reward early Playbook adopters with BB10 earlier!

If it isn't ready for release, it shouldn't be released to anyone. All that will happen is reviewers for technology blogs will get hold of it (most of them will have early PBs from reviews), post about how buggy and rubbish it is, and it'll be lots of bad publicity for RIM and BB10.
It would be rather bad publicity for RIM if they DO release it only for "early adopters", it implies RIM don't care about new customers, and shows they are actually punishing people who buy a PB right now. Which is not what they want. RIM are in financial trouble and NEED more sales of phones and PBs. They shouldn't do anything to imply that they are not doing everything they can for new customers.
Sorry but I think you completely misunderstood me
First of all I do not believe at all that rim should give the first buyers of the pb bb10 first, I was just trying to say that it would be COOL, as I believe I had said before (my bad if I did not)
Second lets just get this clear: I DO NOT BLINDLY THROW MONEY AT RIM TO HELP THEM. I was talking originally about my playbook 64 gig that I unfortunately paid full price for but again I have already said I regert nothing about buying it. I did my research before buying and I HAD NO PROBLEM SPENDING FULL PRICE IF It ment helping bb out a bit.
I am not a fool (is that better mods?), I realize me doing this probably would have no affect on rim but the point was that i cared and thought it would be a good thing.
This is what i am trying to say, if you disagree that is your problem not mine. It was a personal decision I made by taking the leap into buying a full priced product, and I felt good about it. If you would not do the same good for you.
