First came Apple’s iPad, then news released about the Samsung Galaxy Tab and now the announcement of the BlackBerry PlayBook! I’m sure there’s lots more to be released, I don’t own any but would love to play with one soon! The BlackBerry PlayBook is RIM’s new tablet which weighs less than a pound (approximately 0.9 lb or 400g), equipped with a vivid 7” high resolution display (1024 x 600 WSVGA), 1 GHz dual-core processor, the new BlackBerry Tablet OS, ability to handle Flash content via Adobe Flash 10.1, dual HD cameras for video capture and video conferencing that can both record HD video at the same time, and more. I’m not gonna get all technical but it does sound promising, I seriously need to upgrade and get into the “tab” game!
The BlackBerry PlayBook is expected to be available in retail outlets and other channels in the United States in early 2011 with rollouts in other international markets beginning in (calendar) Q2. As a BlackBerry user I’m really excited about this! Are you excited?
