Given that time-frame, we could possibly expect BlackBerry OS 10 for the BlackBerry PlayBook to release sometime this fourth quarter of the year. Perhaps, we’ll see it hit BlackBerry PlayBook before the Holidays, which will allow RIM/BlackBerry to re-market the BlackBerry PlayBook with its shiny new BlackBerry 10 OS. And maybe we’ll see the BlackBerry PlayBook 4G come to fruition after those events. Fingers crossed.

From this BlackBerry 10 app tray – an easy swipe to the right will get you back to your open apps.

This BlackBerry 10 four homescreen tiles are minimized versions of the actual running apps. Pretty much like the minimized apps on the PlayBook, except that they are arranged in a grid, rather than in a row.

In BlackBerry 10, swipe up from the bottom right corner for notifications, then over to the left to slide into the unified messaging.

What do you think about the BlackBerry 10 user interface and it being a gesture based touchscreen? Will you get one when it comes out? Sound off in the comment section below.

And yes, BlackBerry People Do.
