BlackBerry maker unveils 'PlayBook' tablet to take on iPad

RIM boss Mike Lazaridis announces the new BlackBerry PlayBook as he delivers a keynote address at the BlackberryDevCon 2010 last night


The maker of BlackBerry smartphones has unveiled its rival to Apple’s iPad: the PlayBook.
The PlayBook is a smaller and lighter device than Apple’s iPad, which kicked-started the tablet market when it launched in April.
It will have a 7-inch screen, making it half the size of Apple's device, and weigh about 0.9 pounds to the iPad's 1.5 pounds. And, unlike the iPad, it will have two cameras, front and back.
Research in Motion (RIM) showed off the tablet for the first time last night and is set to launch it early next year in the U.S., with an international rollout due later in the year.
