BlackBerry Playbook going global over the next month, RIM fans rejoice
RIM has just announced the 7″ Playbook will be coming to 16 more markets over the following month after releasing the new tablet in the U.S. over a month ago. The tablet from RIM has been criticized and praised from reviewers across the web. Features like multi-tasking and several UI elements have been excellent features for the pocket-sized tablet while the force closes and half-baked nature keep it from really taking on the iPad head to head. Well, that and the limited 7″ screen size without offering a 10″ version at the moment. Regardless, if you like your email tied to your phone, as well as a slightly chubby, yet pocketable tablet, you might want to hit the link for the full press release and the new market rundown.
