BlackBerry PlayBook 2.0 offers exciting upgrade
With the Apple iPad leading the tablet revolution, it’s easy to forget that other tablets are, in fact, also available. The BlackBerry Playbook is an affordable tablet alternative. With the new updated BlackBerry Playbook 2.0 operating system available for free download, it would appear that Blackberry haven’t just been sitting around twiddling their thumbs and watching Neighbours, but are looking to make a much larger dent in the tablet market.
First launched in April of last year, the BlackBerryPlayBook didn’t quite achieve the success that BlackBerry initially hoped. Since then, the bods at BlackBerry have been sharpening their pencils and making notes, addressing these issues to make the BlackBerry Playbook a more desirable item in an increasingly crowded tablet market.
One of the main criticisms of the Playbook was that emails were only available using the web browser or third-party apps. BlackBerry PlayBook 2.0 tackles this by featuring integrated emails and calendar to ensure a much simpler user experience.
Another criticism has focussed on the lack of apps available on the BlackBerry App world. The new BlackBerry Playbook 2.0 supports Android applications, widening the amount of apps offered to users. With Google recently announcing that their total number of apps downloaded has passed the 10 billion mark, this is a major breakthrough for the BlackBerry Playbook in terms of content available.

In terms of spec,the BlackBerry Playbook comes equipped with a 7 inch screen, offers fast processing speeds with a 1GHz dual core processor, and comes with two built in cameras (3 megapixel front and 5 megapixel rear). Surf the web with Wi-Fi compatibility and Flash 10.1 software. With such great hardware and smooth usability, the Blackberry Playbook has always been a nice item let down by a few niggles, but with the Blackberry Playbook 2.0 operating system available as a free download today, there’s never been a better time to check out our latest tablet deals and enjoy the reliable and affordable BlackBerry PlayBook to its full potential.
