Derangedshaman: "I can only imagine what the engineers, CEOs, executives, managers, and designers at RIM where thinking when they created the Blackberry Playbook. The tablet device is “dead in the water,” up the river without a paddle, kaput, DOA, swimming with the…….you get the point".
Engadget - We all know things aren't exactly looking bright over at RIM's Waterloo HQ, but, thankfully, that's not keeping the company from taking care of its current and very valuable customer base. How so? Well, earlier today the BlackBerry maker announced its official Video Store application is now live in Canada's App World, giving the PlayBook crowd a hub to buy / rent "thousands" of movies and TV shows.
MobileSyrup - Here it is! The much talked about launch of RIM’s 4G LTE-enabled BlackBerry PlayBook tablet is upon us. This tablet was originally announced back at Mobile World Congress in 2011, but subsequently delayed.
Engadget - Back in 2008, a nifty little box of tricks elbowed its way onto the market -- the Tonium Pacemaker. A gadget about the size of an OG PSP, with a complete DJ set-up hidden inside. It was a brave idea, and one that was fondly received.
all that and you didnt even say what was wrong with it?

I do think Blackberry have shot them selfs in the foot with this tablet though. I am not a fan of the blackberry devices but I do like the look of this one but not having a 3G version of the tablet to me any way makes it pointless to have one. But out of all the tables I have seen on the market so far the OS looks very nice and very stable but for me anyway there is to much it will not do with out the owner also having a blackberry so to me only apply to a small number of the market where the Ipad and Android pads dont need you to own one of there devices to access the net with out wifi and sync contacts ect.
If Blackberry quickly have a rethink on these little things for the next version on there pad I would be picking one up but until then ill stick to me Galaxy tablet.
