RIM's iPad competitor to be called...Blackpad!

(Artist's impression)

Rumors about Research In Motion's
iPad competitor started swirling a couple of days ago when RIM
registered Blackpad.com, but now Bloomberg has received additional
information from two sources said to be close to the project.














The Blackpad is expected to launch in November with specifications and prices very similar to those of the iPad, although it is thought that RIM's device will allow tethering to your BlackBerry for a 3G connection.


Several big questions remain. Most importantly whether RIM has managed to hone their touchscreen chops after the not so impressive Storm, and whether the promised new OS will be an improvement over the current one. Then there's Apples giant app store to compete with.

We'll bring you any updates as we hear about them.

Racists.

Im sick of all the tablet products.

But it's the latest thing; are you sure you don't want to be cool?

Wanting to be cool isn't cool, being cool is cool. Ya dig?

So you are saying Apple fans are very cool?



2X COMBO

They buy shit to be cool. That doesn't make it so.

Asking parents for money for that stuff is even cooler!
