RIM just got another plug in the latest Yahoo Finance video of “Top 5 Gadgets Worth the Wait.” The video is just showing renderings of the device instead of the device itself but it seems like RIM will be neck in neck with the iPad 2 this year. The iPad 2 also made it into the top 5 along with the Google Chrome Laptop, Nintendo 3DS, and the Chevy Volt 2.0. The thing RIM needs to keep in mind is that they need to price the BlackBerry PlayBook competitively since Apple supposedly has an iPad 2 up their sleeve with a much lower price point which could be why RIM has yet to officially set the PlayBook price…
My advice to RIM. Sell the PlayBook at cost. Get as many of them out the door at the most competitive price possible! Anybody for a $300-$400 PlayBook? Thanks Barrist for the tip!
