Very tempting price. I'd prefer an Android tablet though.

i heard on the news that RIMs stock was upgraded back to buy, a couple days ago.
This sale is limited to Canada apparently.

There are actually a surprising number of games on this thing. I think even Madden is on it.

I held one at a developers conference, and it is a nice device, with a nice OS (BBX aka QNX), a nice form factor. I have an iPhone, but the Play Book would be my first choice if I were to get a tablet.

Should be interesting to see what their new phones BBX are like. They really needed them out yesterday though.

As for share price, that is another thread altogether. I did write a blog price on it though: http://wp.me/pRd9F-2g

Good luck finding one now.

I bought two right at the start of the sale, and returned one just a couple days ago, before I realized that people selling them were charging up to $100 more. There were 6 people at Best Buy trying to get one. I suppose I should feel good about not screwing someone else over at least....

And now, of course, my girlfriend wants one.....

Staples, btw, no longer has them listed.

walmart also has them for the same price
