iPad 2 vs. PlayBook 2.0: Tablet Smack Down!

A 10 Round Head to Head Smack Down comparing Apple's iPad 2 w/ iOS 5 against Research In Motion's BlackBerry PlayBook on it's newly updated 2.0 operating system software Two months ago it might have seen crazy to speak of the iPad 2 and the BlackBerry Playbook in the same sentence.

We will use the 10 point must system - meaning that the winner of each round gets 10 points and the loser gets a lower number. We will look at both devices in detail and put them to the test. Will it be a knockout? Will it be a draw? You might be surprised to see the results....read on. read moreCrackBerry.com's feed sponsored by ShopCrackBerry.com. iPad 2 vs. PlayBook 2.0: Tablet Smack Down!
