    Unboxing of the PlayBook (remember, it's a review unit so probably not consumer packaging)

    Just yesterday I was thinking "Crackberry Kevin hasn't mentioned anything about the PlayBook in a while. Didn't he say when he stopped talking about it he had one? Maybe the new phones are just a distraction!". And here are some PlayBook reviews. coincidence? I think not! I say that my thoughts affect what happens at Crackberry! :P

    *now leaving to wonder if Crackberry's shipping me a free PlayBook for no reason*

    It means only crackberry can watch them for now. I'm subscribed so I got an email about the videos and a picture, description, and link but was surprised they were private.

    For those who are waiting for their orders to arrive, don't watch the unboxing or you'll ruin your excitement when it's your day to unbox!

    My guess is the 19th.

    And by then it won't matter. Keep them private. I'll have my own playbook.

    I don't really know, but have you ever heard of testing something?

    When RIM updated their developers' site with the new SDK the first time, they got a half dozen things wrong. If they'd properly "staged" the update, that wouldn't have happened. Perhaps CB is just doing the sensible thing here... making sure the vids are really available (in all formats, etc) when they're ready to go live.
