RIM introduces it's tablet.. the PlayBook - Page 6

post #151 of 154

That sure explains a lot.  And it would have been nice if RIM told the truth instead of coming up with a bunch of cockamamie excuses for not having mail. Or better:

 

Waiting until they had the multiple device feature implemented in BES and fixed some other stuff in the process and *then* shipped the Playbook.  Now, fixing it after the fact won't help much -- it is a product with the stench of FAIL all over it.  (Example: see Microsoft Zune -- the last version was apparently decent, but by then, no one was listening.)  

 

What possible difference would have waiting a few more months have made?  It's not like someone is running away with the "not an iPad" derby -- all of them are running straight into the ditch -- if you wish to rubberneck, see:  http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2011/06/20/samsungs-new-galaxy-tab-is-still-no-match-for-peerless-ipad2/

Why the Playbook doesn't do email:

 

 

Does this ring true? Should one read Business Insider for tech news?

 

I don't know if that's new, that's what quite a few of us kind of suspected.. but it is a basic error in logic on their part; if they had waited to ship, I don't think it would have hurt them in the slightest.
