Hey Australia, if you're looking to get a BlackBerry PlayBook, but missed out on the sales that Harvey Norman stores just had, you can still find a good price. The BlackBerry Store is advertising all three sizes of the tablet on sale, with the 16GB priced at $295, 32GB at $349, and 64GB at $398. The site is listing them as on sale for this week only, so hurry and get yours!

RIM Interviews the Qantas Wallabies With their PlayBooks & Torch 9810s
I have to admit I had no idea who the Qantas Wallabies were when JD sent this to me. I did a bit of digging and then realized I should probably mention it for our mates down under. RIM posted up three episodes of them interviewing players of the Qantas Wallabies about their crazy game day rituals (many of them involving lucky underwear?) and some of their craziest injuries. They also talk about how they have been using their BlackBerry Torch 9810s and PlayBooks. I was really hoping RIM would do something like that stateside with a device called the “PlayBook” but they have not played on that yet.

BlackBerry PlayBook First Tablet Certified By Australian Government
RIM’s experience with the government certification process is really shining through recently. They started with the US government FIPS certification and now they have the BlackBerry PlayBook certified by the Defense Signals Directorate for use by Australian Governmental agencies. They have to follow some strict guidelines but according to iTwire RIM is saying this is the first government certified tablet in Australia for use with restricted or protected classified data.
