If you've been waiting for the official release of the BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0 software update, prepare to keep waiting a little more. By "keep waiting" I mean suffer as you see Android tablet and iPad users happily enjoying their own official software updates, and by "a little" I mean up to four months or more, since RIM isn't promising a release date for the BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0 software update that's earlier than February 2012.
The cause of the delay? According to a blog post on Inside BlackBerry, the official BlackBerry blog, RIM's just not ready. The software apparently has not yet met the expectations of developers, enterprise customers, and end-users (not unlike yourself and yours truly). So RIM has decided that it's going to take its time to make sure that the BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0 software is just right.
But even after making its customers wait four months for this upcoming tablet software update, RIM still won't include the BBM application; it will instead be included in a later release. With that said, the BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0 software update will add other niceties such as advanced integrated e-mail, calendar and contact apps, a new video store, and better integration between the BlackBerry PlayBook and BlackBerry smartphones.
