Get Php8,600 discount on BB Playbook this Christmas

RIM Philippines is offering BlackBerry customers to get the BB Playbook this Christmas by offering a discount of up to Php8,600USD 147INR 12,424EUR 140CNY 1,067 on any variant of the 7-inch tablet.

This is unfair, I got my BB Curve 9360 last month! Well, I’d better wait for next year. I bet BB Playbook’s price would still go down.

Meh. Just ask a loved one in the USA to buy you a BB Playbook. It’s down to $199 in some stores there.

Planning to get the 9360, this is a good deal. I just want to ask sir Abe, i hear that the 9360 has a bad battery life. And what is the latest official update for this phone?

Another Lame Promotion and Old School Marketing Strategies by BlackBerry Philippines marketing company. Why Lame?
1. The Blackberry tablet in other countries are decreasing its sale because it can’t beat the sales of the Apple Ipad2 and is competing with the others tablet company that why from a retail price of $499 for a 16GB Wifi, it cut down to $199(Php8,800) at Bestbuy and $299(Php13,200) at Walmart. Thats why the price of the Blackberry tablet in the Philippines is very unreasonable and uncompetative and should have lower its price. But because people here in the Phil are much greedy. They still sell it at a higher price but with a lame promotion.

This promo spells S-U-C-K-S.
Why?
Because prices in other countries already been cut down. I think only here in the Philippines, Blackberry is being sold for unreasonable price of Php25,000-28,000($599-699) for the 16GB wifi.
Well, il be getting my 32GB BlackBerry tablet in the U.S. this X-mas for just $249(11,500) tax included. To hell with this promo!
No smart people would be fooled by this kind of promo. Next year expect the Apple Ipad 2 to be sold for just $399.
