This week's Best Buy Canada flyer is a bit of a tease for anxious BlackBerry PlayBook owners. The ad shows off the available PlayBook models, but in addition is sporting a BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0 Coming Soon message. While there is no official date listed for the actual release, it's another good sign that things are on track.
The all-new PlayBook OS 2.0 brings together the best of BlackBerry communications including powerful productivity tools and your favourite applications in -- slim package.
So overall it looks like we're in good shape to see PlayBook OS 2.0 in the next week or so. Try to stay patient and all will be well - we won't keep it a secret when it becomes available!
