So far what it appears to be is the 3G enabled model of the QNX based Blackberry play book tablet with just the new title, the 3G +. The biggest difference between the old one and the new is however the added HSPA+ connectivity and is considered to be a 4G LTE geared device rather. The device will very soon be made available in the markets with a price that’s not yet known.

Of course no doubts on how success the tablet is going to be just like any other Blackberry device, but to know is how far the success would be in a world of stiff competition, not to forget the new trend set by the Samsung with its Galaxy series tablets and similar gadgets.
