ill have to wait to see how it goes for the rest before i jump in

Goodluck.

Has there been any confirmation that it's going to come?

:) good morning from Romania 00:08 AM in the morning of 21st of Feb. I am @work now..night shift...Telecom .. and i am dying to see the OS 2 .. i am refreshing the hell out of CB and PB .. but now i remember ..it was "announced" to be out at 4:01 am EST.. about 11 hrs from now... so i`ll get back to "work" :)

ok they better be releasing the update or else lmao.

Woah, bad timing to hit this article as the CEO lady boss walks by. :|

Will the bridge update for smartphones launch at the same time?

How do I get invited to that party????

PG

I work nights so I'll be hitting refresh to find out when its relased

It looks like they're after "hardware" not software. :)

put some more clothes on gosh

I'll be wide awake!

Pillow fight!!!!!!

Ill probably go to sleep and wake up at 3ish also ill back up the PlayBook before

Really? Gotta post PRE-porn on the main page? Some people look at this at work.

Tuesday I always wake up early to make my family(wife and 2 kids) breakfast. So 4:30 I'll be up and hitting "check for update every 15 min..... Or maybe every min.

Congratulations to everyone at RIM. Everyone is feeling the buzz.

Hells to the YESS I'm waking up for this!

I havn't been to sleep in the past 5 months so Im pretty sure Ill be up... the thing that sucks though is that my Wi-Fi is terrible (Geographic Location) so it will probably take a few hours to update for me :(

I will be downloading it when I get up at 630MST. Can't wait for this update.

The workout is doing well for you kevin! Mrs crackberry seems happy also...

i say we riot if this updated is not released tomm......whos comimg with me???? lmao

I have two PB's to upload OS2. Since I am NOT a tekky, I will wait for CB to tell me all is well and then I will excitedly download all the new stuff.

Very excited...now if I can just get my hands on a new 9930 too!

setting my alarm now.

Popcorn and movie wating!

WOW!!! Anglo chicks have no curves nowadays... thank God for "ethnic" (a rather silly Anglo term, I know!) women who are proud of their curves and love to flaunt them, compare them to the walking broomsticks with silicone racks and it's no wonder that the latter's birthrate is plummeting.

Back on topic... I'll be up for 2.0, can hardly wait.

Something vaguely disturbing about that picture...

Hope the update is out tomorrow. Been waiting since April. Does anyone know if the sideloaded android apps from the beta will work seamlessly with this update?

good morning from Egypt...still waitin for the update...can't sleep !

Why would you need to check software update, when every other os update you receive has been via an automatic notification on the playbook when wifi is on????? Lol

Uhh that's a bit over the top don't u think?? Lol

This kinda feels like Christmas Eve. I'll be over the Atlantic at that time. Hope the inflight wifi is good and ready.

As it happens, my PB is set to be delivered on the 21st. Gonna go ahead and dl 2.0, but I'm wondering if I shouldn't give it a week or so before installing it, to better appreciate the differences. Any thoughts?

Slumber PARTY!!! eeeyyeaa!..

I'm pretty excited about the update but i probably wont stay up till 4am. maybe i'll put the alarm for 4:30-5am...hoping its eastern time.

we shall see.....

R. Dean Crawford
I get up at 05:15 EST anyway so will not be staying up!

#PB20SlumberParty :)

I get up at 5am for work, looks like i'll be getting up a bit earlier. sick day? or maybe just a slacker day at work. ;)

I would like to think that we're not all hot chicks, Kevin. Gosh!lol..

But I may be joing the party, I had a huge void in my life since May 19th, and to be honest, this is gonna take a lot of stress off of my shoulders to know my Playbook is finally going to be complete!.. So tell me, how am I supposed to sleep?! Let the countdown begin!!!

This post makes me very happy. Thank you CrackBerry team for being awesome as always...

For the last few days I've been telling everyone how I am going to going to bed early tonight so I can get up at 3:30am to update my playbook before i work at 7am...

So far everyone thinks I am nuts and I was feeling a little isolated with my love for Blackberry and OS2. However now it's great to know others are just as obsessed as me and will be sitting up wide eyed at 4:01am spamming the update button.

#BringOnThePlayBookUpdate!

I don't want to get my hopes up too high! But, I cannot help it COME ON R.I.M! lol.

Thanks CB and Users!

im not going to kill my self for it, yes im excited big time but at 4am the servers will be so slammed so ill take the extra hours of sleep at just update it at work :P

I was visiting Egypt two weeks ago. Mounted a camel. Whenever I mentioned OS 2.0 to my girlfriend, the camel turned around and spat. Ill-tempered beasts. Missed the guide by a few inches. Couldn't wait to return to Michigan. Surely a bad omen.

if i was rim and two half naaked chicks were beating me with pillows...i'd give them what they want... Just saying...

harsh
hi from INDIA, ITS ALMOST 04:00am here.. so excited..just hope they don't disappoint this time..

I'm doing an all nighter tonight just for the release! I personally can't wait and will be setting up 2.0 the 1st chance it says 'download complete'

haha i live in England and 9-10AM is the ETA here and seeing as i am on holiday from work i will have been up, showered, full english breakfast and read the paper before i even press the update button!! poor slumber friends who have to stay awake all night!! lol
------------------------------------------------------
BlackBerry's are for the self-assured type ;)

Ill be staying up and I hope its worth it :)

ill be up all night for sure! i just picked up some starbucks homebrew!

Those are some ugly girls. Talk about pudgy. The guy is alright. (I'm a girl btw)

playbook is charged.

going to reset the wireless router and cable modem before i go to bed. setting an alarm for 6am pst. figure it'll be 9am est and be up.

download and install while asleep, wake up to a new PB.

The PlayBook is awesome as is, but this update is going to make it that much better!!

Just found out my classes tomorrow are cancelled, so hoping to stay up or wake-up at 4 (East Coast) for this!

Time to 2.0 it!!!!!

just read something jeff gadway said, and he says that OS 2.0 wont be out until the 26th.....rim u suck :( http://www.informationweek.com/news/personal-tech/tablets/232600918

Yup...indeed there is info out there that confirms that :

"The BlackBerry PlayBook's new 2.0 OS will arrive as a giant over-the-air update later this month, likely during the Mobile World Congress trade show if RIM sticks to its announced schedule"
------------

"If RIM pushes February to its limits, Feb. 29 could potentially be a very busy day for mobile news."

This sucks...

So...sleep tight everybody..i know i will ..but who knows..maybe i`ll have a surprise in the morning :)

BTW : Modern Combat 2: Black Pegasus is now FREE ! :D

I will be up for sure, as I am usually up at that time anyway! I also noticed that there are ads by google in the posts now! Maybe I am a little behind the time, but I dont think I have noticed this before. is it some new feature?

I live on the East Coast, and I wake up at 4 every morning....Coincidence? I think not.

I hate to do the math of converting different time zones. While waiting for the left top corner to lit up, I guess I'll be joining u guys for the slumber party. :))

I gotta go into work early anyway so I will be up....finnally

Not seeing the bridge update is kinda makin me nervous

Ill be up @ 4:30am in t.o. Hopefully will have enough time for the update to download before I leave for work @ 5

Boldly sent from my 9930

You know, if we don't get this software update tomorrownmorning, the whole CrackBerry nation is gonna be pisses.

BlackBerry Bridge v2.0.0.25 now available in BlackBerry App World !!!!!!!! Holidays are coming !!!!!!!! :D

This is RIM's last chance.

If the new OS comes out tomorrow and is a vast improvement; then I will take my PB off of Craig's List.

Yeah; I'll get up early.

on behalf of all of us I would just like to congratulate RIM on releasing (keeping fingers crossed) Playbook OS 2.0 tomorrow. Better late than never, and it's been years since there has been so much positive BUZZ about the company ...it's GREAT!!!.

Let's hope it's just the start of more wonderful things to come!!

Perfect, as I wake up for work I can update to os 2.0... Can't wait

Iam in london i think that were gonna get it about 8 am over here, Playbook is defo coming to work tommorrow morning

Can I get a Amen!!??

AMEN!! :-)

I'll def. be sitting up and waiting :P

/taking a power nap and up by 3:30!

I have the 2.0.0.7111 wondering if can just upgrade to new os. Any thoughts? Really looking forward to this new OS. :)

Does anyone know, if you're running the developer preview of OS 2.0, do you need to roll back to OS 1.0 before you can get the full updated version?

Alarm is set for 5:00 am. Check. Bridge downloaded tonite. Check. Coffee maker set. Check. Playbook charging. Check.

READY!!!!! Bring it RIM!!!!!

I am on OS 2.0.0.4869. Do I need to wipe now to go to the official OS or can I do the update with my current OS? Thanks

Wish there was an app that would trigger my Playbook alarm clock when the update is released! That way I could sleep until the last minute. Who am I kidding? I am going to be up waiting, searching, refreshing just like I have been for the last week.

Come on 2.0 I'm up and counting minutes... feb21 come on already!!!

Been hitting the update button ever since i woke up at 7am this morning! then i realize, Dude! im in GMT +7 -_-#

I'll hit the update button at 5pm today!!!

What make me nervous is... i can;t find the blackberry bridge update on my torch 9800

Eniwei... Thx for the info Modern combat 2 now FREE!!!! downloading it ryte now :D

Heheheh, Netherlands here ready to rock in a few hours. The new bridge is working wonderful. I saw it being demonstrated during the Defcon in Amsterdam. but having it yourself is so much better.

I have the upgrade notification on my torch 9800 but the only button i can click is "Delete"

now i'm trying to delete my old bridge and try to install the new ver... will it help?

Downloadin asphalt HD now it's free...
tea is ready ..check ...my favorite music playlist ...check ...
still waitin :D

I will setup BB alarm to download at 1:01am pst..bring it baby !!

im backing up my bad boy as we speak...ill be up waiting....its 4am right??

am I the only one who feels kinda like how those apple fans who wait in line waiting and waiting ONLY I'm NOT IN LINE and its not going to cost me a penny because its FREE.. I feel like I am getting a NEW playbook FREE...Who's with me??

Red bulls and a package of sour cheery blasters. The perfect combination for an all nighter.

I'mmm inn yihaaaaa

sent from my playbook

is ti 4 yet.....?

why would they release it at 4-5 am? That means their RIM staff need to go to work soooo early? It seems a bit odd....

Can't wait to show those Ipaders what a real tablet does!!!!

OMG if my parents found out i was trying to stay i would be dead meat im going to go to sleep in a while but i cant wait!!!!!!

while ,i was in china, and there will be no chinese supported,but i am still waiting the updating!

I'm part of the slumber party.
Now is 1:37pm in Singapore. Hope that RIM will release OS 2.0 to all over the world but not part by part of the world.
OS 2.0 ROCK!!!

Mmmmmmmmmmm... I see sexy girlies there. My PlayBook is sexier haha. BRING ON 2.0!!!

I'm missing the first day of a new semester for this, hope RIM don't let us down

I can't sleep. Less than 2hrs to go.(If its 4am est) the new features of Bridge are awesome! Playbook ftw!

What time is it now??
it's 2.39 PM in Indonesia... RIM please don't let us down?

i cant wait. i've been clicking on the check for updates button for quite some time now!

here in mexico waiting as well...
BTW...
to make your wait less longer dont know if you noticed that Asphalt and Modern Combat are available for FREE right now at the app world, dont know if they were like that before...i just noticed

Anyone here think that the reason that Asphalt and Modern Combat are free is because they're incompatible with the update?

I afraid they make it free because they will delay the OS 2.0 update lol

i am trying to update a few of the currently installed games and other stuff like air broeswer on my playbook but i see an error saying install error:[0003-0005].. anyone knw wats tht all about?

From India...EST time running on my desktop to keep track of 4:01am....so excited :)

hate waiting...

4 am shall the countdown begin?

Do we have ignition?

4:01 and I don't have anything

anybody see any update on their playbooks yet?......

Nope. Nothing. Had a feeling this was going to happen... thankfully had stuff to do till this point. Night/Morning all

no update yet

4:5 well ,its been a long night and still is , come on RIM

Nothing in Ontario at 4:06.

Been using sketchbook for the last hour waiting... tick tock tick tock.... getting good at drawing on my playbook... no update yet, jus checked - 4:06am est (upstate ny)

...but I read in another thread that it will be 05.00, not 04:00?!

lets go to sleep they lied to us ...againg

RIM RELEASE ITT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nothing in Kingston Ontario yet 0412

Bridge 2.0 became available on my Torch at 4.01 but no Playbook OS2 yet.

they better release it now or else , im geting tired of this waiting for something that we already paid for

YOU CURRENTLY HAVE THE LATEST SOFTWARE INSTALLED IS PISSIN ME OFF!!

I checked BBin or India who was suspecting it at 0330. No reports as of yet that it has arrived there .

so nothing at 4.01. next deadline 5.01 eh?

0419, No Joy

This coming through software Update, Right?

hopefully it arrives @ 5 am...

nothin from Egypt :S i hate this

with RIM the next deadline could be next month or next somer or .....

Dear RIM,

With all respect. Can you please release it already. Thank You in advance.

Lets all asume the worst! xP

as i said before lets go all to bed they lie to all of us againg

Mexico 330 AM...
"I CURRENTLY HAVE THE LATEST SOFTWARE INSTALLED"

How is it possible Mexico has it first when it is being released from Canada and Iis being released worldwide and nothing in Canada yet.

I feel like I have been cheated!!! Well atleast I got bridge 2.0! It's 4:40am EST!!!!!!! Come on RIM!!!!!!!! LET'S SHOW THEM WHAT WE CAN DO!

The only thought possible on the mexicp thomg is all download slots on the server are filled and we can't get one.

He didn't say he had 2.0. He just said he had the most current software installed

This is as frustrating as waiting for Asus to release the ICS update for my transformer, which also has been delayed a few times over the last couple months.

If not today, RIM should have formally denied the rumours. Therefore, I think it will be today! Only not 4:01 (EST)...

...............And the story continues.

Time keeps on ticking, ticking, ticking into the future

Finally! i upgraded Asphalt 6 Adrenaline to version 3 =D

You know, technically, there was never any official release from RIM which said today was the day...

Has anyone tried going back to 1.08 or is on 1.08 and is getting the update yet? Maybe it is the Beta that is the prob here.

10 till 5. If not, I'm hitting up the sandman

12 min till 5:01

AS THE LATEST I MEANT 1.0.8...

From India Blackberry site with nothing on a success yet.

Revolutionary BlackBerry PlayBook 2.0 OS Arrives Today!
