Sprint has decided against releasing a 4G BlackBerry PlayBook. Citing lack of demand, Sprint told the Wall Street Journal that they will not be releasing a PlayBook with an embeded 4G WiMax radio.
From The Wall Street Journal: “It’s an interesting concept, it just hasn’t caught on with business customers as much as they would like,” said president of Sprint’s business markets group, Paget Alves. “There are so many tablets in the market, it creates confusion for the average customer.”
Sprint first announced their plans for a 4G BlackBerry PlayBook back in January. Unfortunately, we all have to admit that the iPad and iPad 2 rule the tablet market and there just isn't enough demand for a 7" BlackBerry Tablet.
