Tomorrow ladies and Gents, yup! Tomorrow, the BlackBerry PlayBook is launching in the US. The launch event they had back in April 14 was just to say that they are really gonna launch the tablet but not on that date and April 19 is the actual date, and since that is tomorrow I believe a lot of you would want to go to the stores who announced that they will be offering the PlayBook and get one for yourself.
There are three retailers who will be launching the device tomorrow (I am not sure about Staples though but I believe they will too). Best Buy, Staples, and Office Depot are all launching it and as we already know the PlayBook is priced competitively with the iPad. Who's excited? Who's credit cards or wallets are ready?
