Blackberry Playbook tablet now available with one problem....

Some blame it on the rush to compete with the iphone, others say mere incompetence, but the new Blackberry Playbook has shipped missing one big function.  The ability to sync with Blackberry phones.  You would think that a Blackberry tablet syncing with a Blackberry phone would be a native feature, but no.  Much of the usability of the tablet is dependent on a connection with a Blackberry.  This being the case, it seems foolish to release a product before it is complete, especially if it is your first product in a line.  AT& T and RIM both indicate that they are working on the Blackberry Bridge app that would allow the syncing between the devices.  When that will be available, who knows.  For those who bought the promising tablet, it is essentially a paper weight for now.  Apple must be smiling...
