We all know that the BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0 update is arriving next week, but it looks like some long-awaited apps might be on the way as well. According to Best Buy Canada’s product page for the PlayBook, it suggests that we might be seeing a native Twitter and Amazon Kindle app that will be released soon (possibly with the OS 2.0 update). In the description of the PlayBook, they mention:
“Plug in to BlackBerry App World™ and read, write and game like never before. With thousands of apps for every use, you’ll never run out of new and exciting options. Pick up Angry Birds or Cut the Rope, read the latest magazines, or connect online with Facebook and Twitter apps. With access to Kobo and Kindle, you can enjoy new late night reading without ever leaving your living room.”
It could have been just a typo on the website, but Best Buy were the ones who advertised the OS 2.0 update as “coming soon” before an official release date was even given, so there’s a chance that they could be on to something here. Well, the update arrives next week, so we shouldn’t have to wait too long to find out. Stay tuned.
