    Want Netflix For Your PlayBook? Sign The Petition Today!

    A few days ago, to put it lightly, havoc broke out on Twitter as PlayBook users galore basically ambushed @Netflixhelps. Why you ask? Because Netflix is yet to be available for our precious tablets, and that's just not sitting nicely with most, if not all, PlayBook and Netflix lovers alike. What started as a disastrous tweet stating that Netflix had no real intention of ever bringing a Netflix app to BlackBerry devices, became such a colossal uproar that Alex Saunders himself politely attempted to call off the attack. While the tweets presumably slowed about how angry PlayBook owners were, off to the side, other things were brewing. Since then, a petition to have a Netflix app for PlayBook has promptly begun its way around the BlackBerry community. Even Alex Saunders retweeted with a link to where you can sign. Whether this pertains to you now, in the future, or not even a tiddly bit, help a PlayBook owner out and sign the petition! As of right now, only 500 signatures needed remain.

    Pacemaker And RIM Announce Exclusive App For The PlayBook

    As a DJ (weekend job), this got me so excited that I literally said "yes!" out loud when I read this for the first time. Pacemaker was actually a portable DJing device that unfortunately ended up being discontinued after a lot of people thought it had a ton of potential. Well today, RIM and Pacemaker have announced an exclusive partnership to bring a Pacemaker DJing app to the PlayBook sometime in the Spring.

    No details in terms of pricing or specific availability dates but it's definitely coming for sure. I'm ridiculously excited and you can bet we will be breaking down this app when it's available for all our pro to living room DJs out there.

    TAT Shows Off Amazing Document Sharing App At MWC 2012

    This is possibly one of the coolest things I have seen in a very long time and the best part about it is it's a BlackBerry exclusive. The above video is about a new app that The Astonishing Tribe has decided to show off at Mobile World Congress 2012 today. This app, which currently has no name, enables multiple PlayBooks to, in essence, be aware of each others locations when they are nearby and share files between them. A perfect idea for businesses, large and small alike. In this example, we can see how two PlayBook interact with one another and how even five of them can integrate together in a way.

    The document sharing app enables its users to share by dragging and dropping files or simply "power swiping" them to an external display (like a projection screen; etc). The UI is gorgeous and the simplicity of this makes any BlackBerry user just so excited to know it's coming.

    Moreover, we know that BlackBerry 10 will be heavily influenced by TAT UI design and when are shown what it is possible, one can only imagine what they aren't showing us. Simply amazing. Check out another video below.
