With the BlackBerry PlayBook 4G now announced, RIM is pushing out OS 2.0.1.668 to all current BlackBerry PlayBook owners. This release is noted as a maintenance update and will come preloaded on the BlackBerry PlayBook 4G, though I'm sure most folks were hoping for OS 2.1 to be readily available for download.
