Thread: BlackBerry PlayBook OS updated to 1.0.6.2390

BlackBerry PlayBook OS has just been updated to 1.0.6.2390. It is too early for me to tell what changes this brings, because I am still downloading it...

I just finished downloading. Other than Flash 10.3 support and AIR support for devs, not sure either.

Here is the official update information for the BlackBerry Blog...

Today we are making a new version (version 1.0.6) of the BlackBerry® Tablet OS available to all BlackBerry® PlayBook™ tablet users.
This latest version of the BlackBerry Tablet OS includes support for Adobe® Flash® 10.3 and support for Adobe® AIR® 2.7 software. This means that with this update you should experience even better performance for Flash videos than before, and be able to access new applications that are being built with Adobe AIR 2.7 software. For all the developers out there, be sure to check out our post on the Inside BlackBerry Developer’s Blog.


Today’s update also incorporates the Adobe Flash Player updates as noted in Adobe Security Bulletins APSB11-12 and APSB11-18, which addresses issues that can potentially affect any PC, tablet or other device with an operating system that supports Flash. While there are no known reports of any BlackBerry PlayBook tablet users being affected by these Adobe Flash issues, we (as always) encourage all BlackBerry PlayBook users to update to the newest version of the BlackBerry Tablet OS. For more information about what these security updates mean to the BlackBerry PlayBook please see our security advisory.
