I like RIM. But as has been discussed here before, I don't think they're ever really going to catch up to the "app space".
Their new tablet, which they are calling the Playbook, is coming out next year and anyone who makes an app before a certain date gets one free: http://us.blackberry.com/developers/tablet/playbook_offer.jsp
My friend wants me to help him make an app for it, but I sort of feel like the platform is a waste of time - the apps all run on Adobe AIR. I'm curious though: HN, what do you think? Are any of you betting on the Playbook?
