A few weeks ago, we decided to fly to Johannesburg to attend the “Meet The BlackBerry® PlayBook™” event at the forum | the campus on 24th May 2011 in association with Adobe. The event was split into a business track and a developer track, which catered for most of the attendees. A few of us went to both tracks and found the presentations to be very useful, gave us an insight into what markets BlackBerry are aiming PlayBook at compared to the Apple iPad and other tablet competitors. After chatting to many of the BlackBerry representatives at the event, they all said there has been a lot of interest from small, medium and large enterprises in South Africa regarding the PlayBook. So we are looking forward to the official launch of the device next month.
The reason ThoughtFaqtory is so interested in this device, is because we can leverage our existing Adobe Flash and Flex skills to develop great user experiences for the enterprise market. If you are interested in getting an app developed for the BlackBerry PlayBook, please get in touch with us on our website at www.thoughtfaqtory.com or email us inquiries@thoughtfaqtory.com.
We have also ported some of our apps over to the device already, if you are interested in seeing any of them please let us know via the details above.
