4G LTE BlackBerry PlayBook (32GB) Rumored to Launch July 31st for $549.95

PlayBook 4G LTE Canada

RIM has been saying for awhile now that they will be launching the 4G BlackBerry PlayBook. It looks like that time might be shortly upon us according to the latest leak courtesy of MobileSyrup. They have scored a document that shows the 4G BlackBerry PlayBook launching via Bell and other Canadian carriers on Tuesday July 31st, 2012. The Bell document shows the device selling for $549.95 outright without a contract. That sort of jives with some rumors we have been hearing of it selling elsewhere for $350 with a contract.

The 4G BlackBerry PlayBook will only be coming in a 32GB flavor and a 1.5Ghz dual core processor. All the rest of the specs are the same. So I have to ask. Will you be picking up a 4G BlackBerry PlayBook? I am also curious to see what features it launches with.

4G PlayBook Support added in Desktop Manager for Mac v2.4.0.1

Desktop Manager 24 release notes

We saw RIM sharing builds of Desktop Software v2.4 for Mac to Dev Alpha developers and now it is official. Right after I wrote up about the PC software being updated I happened to check that the Mac team has also released an update. The new v2.4.0.16 is now the official build of Desktop Manager for Mac.

Release Notes Cellular PlayBook

The release notes for this build include support “for the new BlackBerry PlayBook tablets.” It specifically says that BlackBerry Desktop Software “now supports mobile network enabled tablets.” That is one more sign that the 4G PlayBooks are coming soon. Also improved is group to category sync for contacts and the ability to restore a backup created in Desktop Manager for Windows.

You can download Desktop Manager v2.4.0.16 directly from RIM

WordPress For BB10 Images

wp1

One of my most used apps on my BlackBerry is the WordPress app.  With BlackBerry 10 in development I was really looking forward to getting a WordPress app that was more robust like the Android version.  As you can see in the pics, Automatic the creator of WordPress, have gotten their hands on a BlackBerry 10 Dev Alpha device and they are hard at work on a BlackBerry 10 app.

 

Now at the moment this version is merely a port of the Android, but that isn’t such as a bad thing as the Android WordPress is the best on any of the big platforms. Hopefully Automatic will bring something new and exciting to the WordPress app with the release of BlackBerry 10, so that those other platforms are jealous of us for a change.

You can check out more screenshots of the app on the WordPress Blog here.

A Dreamy Blackberry 10 Concept by TK Discovery

Concept

It is concept time once again and what a beauty this one is. Created by DigitalHomeBoy, the TK 3.0 Discovery is clearly what he would like to see from a BlackBerry 10 all touch screen device. We have seen a couple of concepts in the past few months, one with a hardware QWERTY keyboard and another just touch, and they all look great. With BlackBerry 10 arriving shortly after the New Year (hopefully) we all now know for sure that both styles of phone will be available without too much of a gap between them, unlike RIM’s original plan where BB10 was expected this year, not next.

If what we end up with looks remotely like this concept I will be more than happy. I’m not sure be will see hardware with the screen all the way to the edge of the device without a bezel (on the right and left) but I’m digging what DigitalHomeBoy has done with the back of the design.

The only downside to seeing concepts like this is that it makes the wait so much harder. Roll on Q1 next year. It’s going to be awesome I suspect.

Nice job DigitalHomeBoy. Keem them coming.
