Playbook was first introduced into the market at a price of $500 but the tablet didn’t gain much attention and later its price was dropped to half its original price. It runs on playbook OS 2.0 and has 1 GHz dual core processor and 1 GB RAM. It is available in 16, 32 and 64 GB models. Actually this is a tablet which is very much suitable for business men. There are many business oriented apps and features such as spreadsheet work very well in this device. The power button is not placed rightly and pressing it is difficult. The other great thing is that this tablet may be considered the best in multitasking. There is also a feature called Blackberry Bridge to connect blackberry Smartphone with this tablet. But the less number of apps is a downside. But for the price mentioned it is actually a pretty good deal.SPECIFICATIONS:

Blackberry Playbook is really a solid business tablet. If you buy this tablet you will not be disappointed with its performance but soon you will realize the lack of apps. But the RIM is working very hard with the apps section and updates for playbook is coming every day. If you want a tablet with lot of apps and games to play then this is not your tablet. But who knows whether android apps will be compatible in the near future.!
