BlackBerry Playbook release date confirmed

02 Mar 2011

The BlackBerry PlayBook can be yours from 10 April. That just got announced. But with the Apple store crashing moments before suggesting an iPad 2 release by the end of the day, have BlackBerry left it too late?

After rumours of Apple making only minor changes to the iPad, the BlackBerry may still be in with a fighting chance. The 7in HD tablet packs a 1GHz dual-core chip, 1GB RAM and dual cameras with full 1080p video capture. Let's see you top that, Mr Jobs. No, really, please top that.

A price has not yet been announced but to read more about the device, check out our PlayBook overview.

    I wonder, since I have a Blackberry Torch whether this will have any neat syncing abilities between the 2 or whether I would be just as good to get an ipad?

    Forget about the ipad - if you're a blackberry user and want full syncing, then go for the playbook. This machine is getting wonderful reviews and will be both a creative and fun media tool and also a wonderful business workhorse. My only gripe is that they haven't launched with a 3G option as well as you dont have wifi everywhere.

    As this machine will sync perfectly with your blackberry phone, I have no doubt that the phone will be used just for that - a phone!
