Look out iPad, the BlackBerry PlayBook Tablet is here and is loaded to the hilt


At this years BlackBerry Developer Conference, RIM brought out the big guns. Well it was a little bigger than their biggest phone. RIM’s Tablet that’s been called the PlayBook was finally made official. I find the name rather odd and I believe others will too, from a company that’s been focused for many years on the business sector to release a device they call ‘Play’ Book is a little strange. Then again if you think about it, all the new devices, including OS 6 have taken on a whole new funky look and feel. Gone are the days RIM was known as the Businessman’s brand. So back to the tablet – it’s got a 7-inch screen (1024 x 600 pixels), 1 GHz dual-core processor with 1 GB of RAM, comes with Adobe Flash 10.1, has a 3MP came in front and a 5MP camera with HD recording (1080p) at the rear, is Wi-Fi capable (DLNA support) and is just 9.7 millimeters thin weighing in at 0.9 pounds.
