Any news on when Playbook's upgrade?

My guess is that we should see the upgrade available in April. They were supposed to have it rolled out in February, but they just extended the free playbook offer to developers until March. My guess is that they'll start heavily promoting it in March, and we'll have a buggy, crappy 2.0 by April.
Blackberry...when am I going to learn?

I heard today that they are only updating their OS... and delaying any new model release indefinitely.
Nowhere for you but for me and all who owns a Playbook is good news.A road to nowhere....

It's true the Playbook is inferior to the iPad, but it is a really nice form factor for travelling. (tiny yet usable size). I got mine for under $200 so at that price it is a decent value... I hear good things about 2.0 and I am looking forward to it.
I think the Fire will take the lower functionality $200 price point market and Apple will continue to own the much large and more valuable high end market....

FYI the Playbook's quality is high end as far as hardware if you compare it to the ipad, its only disadvantage is the number of available apps that makes it unattractive to users, but with the upgrade and the ability to have access to Android apps will make a difference.
Even Apple is following Palybook by reducing the size of their ipads. Who wants to travel with a big ass ipad.

I dunno 40 or 50 million people so far I think. Lol.
Yes there is a rumor that apple might offer a smaller version of their iPad along with a normal size one.
The current iPad size is good-works very well for reading, surfing the net and watching Netflix movies or tv shows. And of course email.

1) Playbook users buy Android apps through RIM on OS 2.0
2) RIM goes bankrupt in a year
3) Since those purchases are not recorded on Google Market, users will have to repurchase on their Android tablets
4) ????
5) Profit!!
You are funny if you think RIM will go bankrupt in a year because of this upgrade.RIM is going to make a lot of Android app devs rich.

RIM is going bankrupt because they don't have a viable strategy... and I don't think they realize it yet....You are funny if you think RIM will go bankrupt in a year because of this upgrade.

The stupidity of the executives, product managers, marketing and in general, the whole company is simply terrible.
I was talking with some of the finance and product managers and they all blame their demise on "perception", they don't see anything wrong with their products. Even the stupid protectionist attitude of the Canadian government towards RIM blows my mind.
Wake up RIM (and Canadian technology companies in general) it is a whole different ball game out there now. We are already 25 years behind Asia and we are still thinking we will survive with that attitude???
Read what OTB and Alex said.You are funny if you think RIM will go bankrupt in a year because of this upgrade.
