Finally, Maxis has revealed their pricing details much earlier than expected. This is very surprising because Maxis will normally announce/ reveal their pricing details and plans few days before the launch. As for the BlackBerry Playbook, there is still a long way to go before their official launch date which is on the 16th of July.

Below is the price of BlackBerry Playbook from Maxis. There are 3 versions being offered, which is the 16Gb, 32Gb and 64Gb. The RRP of the device is expensive compared to iPad and I am not sure whether this Playbook will be able to do its sales magic.

By looking at the table above, you can get a Playbook (16Gb) for as low as RM990. If you do not own a BlackBerry phone (yes, I mean a PHONE, with QWERTY keyboard), you can’t do a lot of things because the Playbook need a connection from your phone to have the email/push features etc. To solve that problem, Maxis encourage you to get a phone from them as well when you buy this Playbook. If you do so, you will get RM100 rebate on the tablet (e.g. you can get your 16Gb playbook for as low as RM890).

If you are interested to get a Playbook, keep yourself free on 16th of July (Saturday) and head to KL Convention Centre (Exhibition Hall 4) anytime from 10am to 6pm. I doubt that there will be a queue there. Well, even if there is, it will not be as long as the iPhone or iPad queue that you will usually see.
