The 2011 Consumer Electronics Show kicked into full swing Thursday as exhibitors threw open the show floor doors and let in the throngs of gadget gawkers gathered at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Larger vendors’ booths were immediately swamped with attendees poking and prodding the newest wares. I happened upon Research In Motion’s
outpost to check out the PlayBook, the BlackBerry tablet the company will launch early this year. At first glance, the PlayBook closely resembles the Samsung Galaxy
Tab. A big difference, however, is that it runs a QNX operating system.
