BlackBerry PlayBook Reportedly Slated for April 10th Launch

by Robert Quigley | 9:47 am, March 2nd, 2011

According to Boy Genius Report‘s “multiple sources,” BlackBerry’s PlayBook tablet [specs] is due for an April 10th release. If this is indeed the case, the timing of the leak would be quite a coincidence, since today just so happens to be the day that Apple is all but certain to reveal the iPad 2 unto the world. Tech websites are making a big deal about this, apparently.

The 7-inch HD tablet is specced to feature a 1 GHz dual-core CPU, 1 GB RAM, front and rear cameras, an on-screen keyboard, and support for Flash 10.1 and HTML 5.

Eric Limer I swear Xbox Live is never not offering me 2 months of gold for $2. At that price, I kind of don't even mind the dirty, auto-renew trick.

Eric Limer It's really a shame that writers spend so much of their time writing, which is -- coincidentally -- a very boring thing to write about.
