Research In Motion recently uploaded a new video which showcases the full web fidelity of the BlackBerry PlayBook. Watch the video below.

The BlackBerry PlayBook is shaping up to be a pretty awesome tablet. Multi-tasking, full web experience, seamless data syncing and sharing for BB phone and tablet, 1080p video with HDMI, full flash support (means Facebook games, etc.), 5MP rear and 3MP front cameras, and 3G internet access via existing blackberry phone plan (means no need for 2 sims).

I know it's not fair to compare this to the iPad but Apple should really make sure that the iPad 2 will kick the new tablets out of the water. For now I'm keeping my iPad but I'm definitely going to go for the BlackBerry PlayBook. I'll probably keep the iPad at home as a portable browser and media center (interface with Apple TV, etc.)

Now, if only the battery life on this BBPB can last up to a day or two, then might as well consider this, considering that BB maintains its high reputation with the BB Phone lineups.

If this is cheap, I might buy this one.

I saw this a few days ago at RIM's site... it looks promising and all the features are what I want with the iPad... I'm sure Apple will come out with a winner.

the pricing will be the point to consider. if priced good & affordable,
this might be the best companion to iPhone, imagine BB pushed email, BBM, all social networkings pushed,

now I might go the other way around, instead of Blackberry phone with an ipod or ipad, not Playbook with an iphone

All BB's start at a ridiculously high price and then starts to drop quickly. In 2 to 3 months time from the actual launch you would already be able to purchase it at 30% below the initial price.

Thanks, I didn't know that

Starting today, I will save my money for BB Playbook

RIM did say that this would be under $500. I'm seriously looking into getting this as my workhorse tablet (since my BlackBerry is my work phone). The iPad can be a house media remote control/portable media center.

*waiting for Steve Jobs to announce features of iPad 2*

when will this be available? hehe.. the problem here is, it's very good for people who are already using a blackberry, but i'm not sure if this will push people to move to BB..

The Playbook looks very promising especially the flash capabilities of this machine.
Feels like throwing my ipad for a sec. But for me, the Ipad is still more superior
when it comes to wide choice of applications compared to Playbook.
