Blackberry Playbook Fail

I was at the airport today. Another delayed flight from United Airlines, so I had some time to kill.
I finally had a look at the BlackBerry Playbook.

Did you know that it doesn't do emails natively! You need a BlackBerry running BlackBerry Bridge to make the connection to emails, calendar etc.

They just minimized their addressable market to the size of their already shrinking base of BlackBerry users. Sounds like a pretty stupid move by an already faltering company.

I have a BB and I wouldn't buy it purely because I don't want to limit my options.
