Looks like RIM is trying one last thing before giving up. Between now and the end of the year, if you buy 2 Playbooks, you get a 3rd for free. This on the heels of RIM pushing back their OS update another 6 months. Must be hard to add native email and calendar clients?
It won't work, and come March, we should see a firesale... If not sooner. RIM is dead.
* note: this is only for business customers, cause you know, the Playbook is only for business users. Probably why the only sold 100,000 last quarter.
