Will it Sprint ahead?
Research in Motion (RIM), the makers of Blackberry, have announced plans to launch a 4G version of the device this summer in the US with Sprint Nextel.
RIM for the first time on Wednesday provided a hands-on demonstration of the PlayBook, a seven-inch touchscreen tablet that will go head-to-head with Apple's iPad when the Wi-Fi-only version ships, likely in March.
"In large companies, they're talking deployment in the tens of thousands, right off the bat," said Jeff McDowell, senior vice president of enterprise and platform marketing for RIM, said while terming the corporate interest in the product to be 'massive'.
