    BlackBerry PlayBook Unboxing - Video

    It’s that time to unbox something again, and CrackBerry has just the thing to break into — the brand new BlackBerry PlayBook packaging. The packing itself is really fresh compared to a lot of other BlackBerry gear, and the PlayBook itself looks just fantastic. We really hope the PlayBook can provide Apple a run for it’s money, because so far nobody has managed to even chip away at Apple’s ruthless grip on the tablet industry.

    "Scrapbook" for BlackBerry PlayBook Demo - What now Apple?

    This is the most “Apple-ish” thing we have ever seen from a company besides Apple. BlackBerry Scrapbook takes the creative process to a whole new level — because it can. The PlayBook has a powerful processor so it can deal with the eye candy that you see in the video. Great work BlackBerry… your move Apple.

    Blackberry Playbook compared to the iPad - by Blackberry

    As you can see, the Playbook totally destroys the iPad in every aspect of the web — but in Blackberry’s eyes, the web is about “performance” and not “usability + performance”. If you think hard about what a tablet means to most consumers, battery-life seems to be a number one priority, and the iPad has some sort of limitations put on performance in the name of battery life. Sure the Playbook seems to have more horsepower, but what is the battery like in the real world? — Plus, we really want to play with one (they look so cool!) before we make judgements.
