The US is following suit
Best Buy USA follows suit, drops BlackBerry PlayBook pricing | CrackBerry.com
For those of you who purchased one already, anyone notice if their playbook doesn't lie flat? Mine has a bulge around the logo and slides/pivots on it when I type. When doing the swipe gestures, it literally rotates my playbook. Very frustrating, however I was able to get an authorization for an RMA for this issue and RIM is sending over a new 16 GB to me!
It will be shipped to me within 2 business days and I have 10 days to send back the old one. Otherwise, bringing it back to the store will get you no where as they're all out of stock.
So if anyone has the same problem, or any other issues for that matter call playbook support, they're 24/7!
