    Blackberry Playbook hands on Demo - Video

    I have to say, this Playbook looks like quite the device and the UI seems to be quite surprising for a number of reasons — it is really responsive, the animations seem to be smooth and the browsing seems to be usable. This is, from our knowlege, the first real iPad compeditor and time will tell if the Playbook can topple Apple’s throne.

    Note: The video has a very low framerate, the Playbook just seems jittery.

    RIM Announces the PlayBook - 7" BlackBerry Tablet

    Yes, this is the long rumored 7” BlackBerry tablet that we’ve all been waiting for. At today’s BlackBerry Developer’s Conference, RIM certainly blew some minds away by announcing one of the only serious competitors to Apple’s already massively famous iPad. Specced out with a 1Ghz dual core processor, 1 GB of RAM, a 7” 1024 x 600 capacitive display, dual HD cameras (3 megapixel front and 5 megapixel back), along with other competitive specs, this will certainly give Apple a run for their money. BlackBerry Tablet OS lets you multitask and record full 1080p video. Weighing in at under a pound, it certainly packs in a lot of goodies including a pretty attractive interface quite similar in appearance to Palm’s WebOS. Expect 3G and 4G models in the future while no pricing or availability was announced. Aren’t we all just glad it’s not called the BlackPad?
