Blackberry Playbook Update 2.0.1.358

By | 2012-04-18

Yesterday I updated my Playbook from the big OS 2.0 install we waited so long for to the first update since, 2.0.1.358.

Reportedly this update was intended to fix bugs and allow Android apps to run better, and have no noticeable new features. The only change I’ve seen is it no longer works as well as it did before. I have two wireless access points in my home, one it still work on, the other it will not. It used to work fine with both till this useless update. It connects but network apps will not work consistently from the 2nd Wi-Fi AP. And yes, my Android tablet and other devices still work great on the access point that the Playbook has new issues with.

Good job Blackberry! I already rarely use my beloved Playbook since it hasn’t been as useful as the Android tablet (Asus Transformer Prime) I purchased soon after your troubled Playbook. And now when I want to use the Playbook, it’s even less useful, as it is now an unconnected tablet. We all need one of them, don’t we?!
