New Professional-Grade Tablet Delivers Unmatched Power and Web Performance, Built for Business Perfect for large organizations and individuals alike, the BlackBerry® PlayBook gives users what they really want, including uncompromised mobile browsing, true multitasking and high performance multimedia, while also providing advanced security features, out-of-the-box enterprise support and a breakthrough development platform for IT departments and developers. Product highlights include: Seamless integration and security: For BlackBerry® smartphone* users, it will also be possible to pair their tablet and smartphone using a secure Bluetooth® connection to seamlessly and securely view any of the email, BBM™, calendar, tasks, documents and other content that resides on (or is accessible through) their smartphone, without worrying about syncing or duplicating data. This secure integration is a particularly useful feature for those business users who want to leave their laptop behind. Enterprise Ready: Thanks to the seamless and secure Bluetooth pairing experience and the highly secure underlying OS architecture, the BlackBerry® PlayBook is enterprise ready and compatible (out-of-the-box) with BlackBerry® Enterprise Server. When connected over Bluetooth, the smartphone content is viewable on the tablet, but the content actually remains stored on the BlackBerry® smartphone and is only temporarily cached on the tablet (and subject to IT policy controls). With this approach to information security, IT departments can deploy the BlackBerry® PlayBook to employees out-of-the-box without worrying about all the security and manageability issues that arise when corporate data is stored on yet another device. Form and function: Measuring less than half an inch thick and weighing less than a pound, the BlackBerry® PlayBook features a vivid 7-inch high definition display. Multitasking features: Its groundbreaking performance is jointly fueled by a 1 GHz dual-core processor, 1 GB RAM, and the new BlackBerry Tablet OS, which delivers an unparalleled, true multitasking experience — enabling multiple applications to run at the same time. Uncompromised web browsing: With support for Adobe® Flash® Player 10.1, Adobe® Mobile AIR® and HTML-5, the BlackBerry® PlayBook delivers a best-in-class, high-fidelity browsing experience and offers the ability to enjoy all the Internet has to offer. High performance multimedia capabilities: It includes dual HD cameras for video capture and video chat, HDMI-out in 1080p for presenting one's creations on external displays, and rich stereo sound. Professional grade: Means best in class performance and quality, manifesting itself across all features and capabilities of PlayBook. QNX Neutrino Reliability: The BlackBerry® Tablet OS is built upon the QNX® Neutrino® microkernel architecture, one of the most reliable, secure and robust operating system architectures in the world. An OS Built for Developers: The Neutrino based microkernel architecture in the BlackBerry® Tablet OS delivers exceptional performance, high scalability, support for industry standard tools that are already familiar to hundreds of thousands of developers, and more. The BlackBerry® Tablet OS supports Java enabling developers to easily bring their existing BlackBerry® 6 Java applications to the BlackBerry® Tablet OS environment
