Abstract: We finally have a retail-ready BlackBerry PlayBook unit in our hands, so we decided to give it a quick unboxing video to show you all what it will look like once you're able to go out and buy one of your own.The packaging is actually quite nice. As you'll...
Excellent user interface. Sharp, beautiful screen. Topnotch browser with full Flashvideo support. Wirelessly transfers files to and from computers on same network. Internet tethering with Blackberry phones works well—and it's free,
Some hardware issues and significant software bugs. No native email support at launch—only browser bookmarks for Webmail sites. Bridge support for BlackBerry phone sync is not yet finalized. No video chat despite frontfacing camera.

RIM's BlackBerry PlayBook is a fast, powerful 7-inch tablet with HDMI output, advanced multitasking and security, and a browser that integrates Adobe Flash 10.2 for a desktop-style Web experience
The 7-inch screen cramps the powerful browser, the wake button is difficult to push, and app selection trails the competition
The BlackBerry PlayBook ably showcases RIM's powerful new mobile operating system, but its middling size diminishes many of its best features.
Sharp display has vivid, accurate colors, High-definition video playback impresses, Light weight makes this conducive to hold in hand
Initial software is buggy and lacks polish, No integrated e-mail, contacts, or calendaring, Awkwardly designed onscreen keyboard

Abstract: RIM is aiming to launch its PlayBook tablet on April 19, but reviews of this QNX-powered tablet started to hit the wire last night. The consensus among reviewers suggests the PlayBook will not threaten Apple's dominance in the tablet market.Most reviews p...
Abstract: The BlackBerry PlayBook tablet surely is one beautiful device. Right from the very first look at the tablet you’ll want to get your hands on the monolithic black tablet’s, button-less facade. But once you put your hands on it, things changes drasticall...
One mistake I believe a lot of members of the press make is assuming that today's two-horse race is representative of the future of this industry. While Apple and Google are clearly out to a substantial lead, there are still more revolutions that will tak...
