Even though the BlackBerry PlayBook hasn't exactly been flying out the door, RIM is continuing to tweak with the tablet, looking for something that will propel sales. For example, leaked photos that we showed to you recently featured what appeared to be a 4G LTE model of the tablet, with BBM. Additionally, BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0.1.358 is now available on the update notification, or manually by going to settings and then hitting "update software". Users activating a PlayBook after Tuesday will have their tablet automatically updated to the latest OS.
The new update includes optimizations to video chat, PIM and BlackBerry Bridge applications. BlackBerry also have Browser and fixes some issues that have made difficult the use of some Android apps on the tablet and more like table pro. Speaking of the browser, a benchmark test done at website HTML5 Test shows that the browser on the Blackberry PlayBook 2.0 OS outscored all other tablet browsers.
from last recen days, RIM's Alec Saunders announced a contest where the developer of each 100th app for BlackBerry App World over the next week would be eligible to win a trip to next month's BlackBerry 10 Jam in Orlando from May 1st to May 3rd. In just seven days, the promotion helped 600 new apps get added to RIM's online application store, and helped 6 developers get their name thrown in the hat to win the trip.
Thanks to BlackBerry. :-)
