It has become a trend among great companies to give developers handsets or tablets to work with during conferences and events. Google gave out Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablets a couple of months ago, during its big official event and now it’s the time for RIM to give free PlayBooks to developers.
I’m talking about the specialists who will attend DevCon and leave with their own unit of the BlackBerry PlayBook, maybe even with QNX 2.0 installed. Taking place on October 18th and ending on the 20th in San Francisco, BlackBerry DevCon Americas will be a great event both for programmers and fans of the brand of business phones.
What’s really important to mention here is that RIM already did that trick once, handing out PlayBook units at the BlackBerry World event, but we don’t mind a repeat. Maybe this is the LTE or WiMAX version they’ll be sharing, who knows? I’m truly looking forward to seeing an update here…
