RIM Hosting BlackBerry PlayBook Launch Party In NYC On April 14

By Mauricio

We know the BlackBerry PlayBook should be launching this month but we haven’t seen too many ads or official mention of the PlayBook through retail channels, which is a bit surprising. By now I would have expected Google to show some PlayBook ads but then again, the official name of the Torch 9800 was outed by a Google ad on the same day of its launch event and before that day no ads were running. Yesterday RIM sent out some invites for a PlayBook launch party in New York City on April 14th so PlayBook ads might start running on that day.

The invite didn’t offer any details about what the event would include but I’m sure everyone who is attending will enjoy it regardless, including yours truly. This event is invite only but you can expect to see coverage of it right here on BlackBerryRocks.com so be sure to subscribe, follow on Twitter and become a fan on Facebook. Stay tuned!
