Something wonderful is about to happen for BlackBerry PlayBook owners but what is it?

BB10 Update? :O

Free games

I very Curious!!! What is it!!!

Draw Something?

I hope it's not just Angry Birds Space.

There's no chance its Netflix, right?

Hopefully some popular apps :p

Bla1ze - 1st you sent a link about the Jaycut video editor, and now this! Full of good news!

*Fingers crossed* for Tomb Raider!!! :D

SKYYYPE Pleeeeaase!!!

Can't wait!

Skype and or Netflix??!!!!???????

Angry Birds Space, Temple Run, and other highly acclaimed games will be on PB.

ALL games will be FREE, for one day only!!!!

I bet it is Angry Birds Space.

BBM ?

Angry Birds Space, Skype or Draw Something will make me happy!

REFUND?

Is that check Appworld in the morning or at the end of the day?..

Ahhh .. I'm like a kid at Christmas.. CAN'T WAAIIITTT!

If its angry birds we knew that was coming cause YOU LEAKED IT. So don't try and surprise us with that please.... BUT would Still LOVE some angry birds space :)

Yay, free games all day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My PB is on the charger now getting ready!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was wondering myself but when I saw a comment I agree! Angry birds space!!!!

The post advises to charge our PBs so it may very well be a major software update? But then again, we had an update last week...hmmmmm

ain' t going to be nothing for me, my playbook died and has to go out to be repaired

I hope its not just angry birds in space. We already knew it was coming but didn't know when.

If it's just angrybirds ill be pissed as well rim always does this. So I'm not expecting much

since he is the head of gaming, it is obviously not skype or netflix. probably angry birds space

I thought angry birds was out already.

No skype this tweet is from the head of "games" or whatever at RIM.
I'm thinking its gonna be huge like being able to play brick breaker via bridge!!!

Ok ok maybe its just angry birds space which is cool but not "wonderful"

Playbook OS will be replaced by Android!!! yeeeesss!!!

Why do we need to charge our PBs for angry birds space? In any case, if the "big news" is angry birds space, it's no big deal...I have played it and it's just another game. Nothing to lose sleep over.

Probably Angry Birds Space. Hope i will be surprised though...

GOSH!!! Shut up and get AB Space if you like it or dont if you dont! All these things are surprises, since no one had any clue on this... ZEUS!! What the heck is wrong with des gens on these days...

Whatever it is appworld has to wake up and work before anything can be done over here error 0003-0005 all the time

wharever it is I hope it'll be available for everyone not just US and Canada

angry birds space is probably the most likely

Words with friends and draw something!

16 player Daytona usa or Mario Kart with qnx controller!

NES emulator with Super Mario Brothers!!!!!

I hope it's a sandwich... I could go for one of those.

Please not angry birds, skype or netflix. Something actually worthwhile and of some value

I'm hoping BBM for playbook

Angry birds quadrilogy for free for a whole day!

Hope something AWESOME, Im kinda bored with my playbook, Id rather use my TORCH or my ACTUAL Laptop...

Ivan S. Harris
Ivansharris.com

CASCADES ?????

I hope its not this angry brids space crap... not a fan Please jus let it be useful and not a game

aLL OF THE ABoVE!!

if its angry birds space im going to be pissed lol......

I guess it's that "I love Team Blackberry" wallpaper downloadable for free :D

Space TicTacToe is out!!!!

I hope it isn't blackberry posting a big hype for some silly game. If they want to make a post sounding like something epic is coming they better have something worth our time.

Come on guys the man is head of the game category, and he says its wonderful, it must be happy poneys or something! LOL!!! I can't wait... I'm so curious right now!

I am more intrigued by the words "Charge your #playbook!"

A COMPANY EXCHANGE/TRADE FROM OLD PB TO NEW PB/LTE 4G....BUT WAIT, HE SAID APP WORLD..!!???? HMMM.... GOT TO BE NETFLIX OR SKYPE! I HOPE THERE'S PANDORA AS WELL THEN AGAIN, HE CLAIMED GAMING CATEGORY... AWWW!!!! I HOPE NOT ANGRY BIRD SPACE...!!!!!

...IM COOL, NOT CURIOUS, CROSSING FINGERS, FOR WHAT EVER IT IS... YAWNN.....

My money is on World Peace. Please let it be World Peace.

OS2GUY

I hope max Payne for playbook!

its the new angry birds space coming and some more games.

NO SKYPE. I CAN BET YOU $500USD AND A NEW PLAYBOOK. NO SKYPE. ITS JUST GAMES.
DONT SET YOURSELF UP, THEIR WILL NEVER BE NATIVE BBM ON THE WIFI PLAYBOOK.

I hope this isnt like the time when Jim B said something mind blowing was coming and our minds were never blown.

:/

I bet it's OS 2.1, too early for OS 10.

I hope this isnt like the time when Jim B said something mind blowing was coming and our minds were never blown.

:/

All games, either FREE or half price......something along those lines

I think it'll be Ms. Pac Man! THAT would be legen - wait for it - dery!!!

Tell me that it's more than just a new game to download...

Angry birds space, fruit ninja, Skype, netflix, temple run, wwe Wrestlefest, tiger Woods, infinity blade and others will all be in app world tomorrow!

Haha

Not getting excited, migt be something not interesting

Man. i just made an offhand comment about Angry Birds Space...everyone ran with it?

Or maybe I'm thinking too much of myself and my comment.

in any event, it "should" be more than one game. It might also be, hopefully, a series of games, maybe some new dev house got brought in?

It most certainly will not be Skype. How many times does Skype have to say that they are not interested; will not be interested; have never been intersted in developing or supporting the Blackberry Playbook before Playbook fans get the message that it's never coming out.

Personally, I'm really hoping that this is nothing about a specific game per say but rather some sort of announcement that indicates that RIM has arranged for partnership deals with all of the remaining game developers out there that have yet to support the Playbook, i.e., Big Fish Games, Digital Chocalate, Madfinger Games, Zen Studios, Squaresoft, Taito Games, PopCap Games (beyond their 1 title already), to name a few.

Basically, my definition of wonderful is not an Angry Birds Space announcement, I want to see all the major developers bringing over their apps to the Playbook. Now that would be wonderful.

I know, I know! MOre *BS...

FIFA 12?

@Olukunlea, had the same problem, set the date forward a couple of months, try updating your Blackberry ID, restart your playbook, set the date back and try App World again. See how you go.

Probably not BB10 Slype Netflix as it is from the head to the "game" department at RIMMM

Is it a cat???

I bet it's a cat.

Something BIG about to happen can't be because of a silly game lol. At least I hope it's not.. Dunno why it would be BIG if it's a game?

I've got a 9900 and iPad 2.
It really is so pitiful seeing all the PB owners go drooling for a game that has been on other platforms for weeks!! It's not your fault that developers are shunning you. It's RIM's!! They're doing a huge injustice to PB owners... Lack of apps, lack of calendar/email initially... Honestly RIM aint treating their loyal customers right. That HAS to change w BB 10.

Fortunately for me, I know;) that some aspects of the BB10 are honestly amazing (task switcher and camera functions r crazy cool), but I doubt RIM's administrative will get sharpened enough to cease the delays they have currently. They need major MAJOR restructuring efforts into getting products out to market.

Hope PB does get something cool tmrw. The damn tablet is the best 7.0 outt here.

better be and android player or I will tweet them what I think

The ability to use our touch screen blackberrys as controllers?

Solitaire?

Gotta be angry birds space.

"Something wonderful is about to happen!" Is a quote from 2010 A Space Odessy.

Please please please can somebody explain to me the big deal about angry birds. It's the same as frogger 2 which is an o.k. game but not great. Then you buy it four times each time with a differant backgound. Netflix needs to be renamed net-tv-series as they have very little in the way of decent movies, just old tv series. Skype would be very nice or a link to the video call app we already have.
What I would really like is the ability to print to a printer (wireless or usb) and an upgrade to bluetooth to let me use my Motorola S9 wireless headset

Or perhaps an App World facelift (using Cascades) plus some highly awaited Apps and Games?

Here's hoping! :)

My money is on AB:S

Would love it to be Words with friends, Draw Something, or the Tomb Raider game they showed a few months back. All three would be sweet. God I hope it's not just Angry Birds Space!

Under-promise and over-deliver. Thor better be bringin' the hammer...

I hope it browser bookmark, or something that decreases the checkerboard.
Or maybe dlna, usb otg. Even a native kindle app for playbook not the sideloaded crap.
Or maybe the Thousands of games that was supposedly waiting in the pipeline.
Or maybe actually get some useful android apps and not the pathetic ones we have now.
The biggest surprise would be if hey say angry birds space was the surprise which certainly would be an Epic Fail.

I was going to say Kindle App! BUT who needs the Kindle App when we have BOOKREADER!

I hope modern combat 3 release

Coming from "The Head of Gaming Category" its obviously Angry Birds Space.

What ever it is coming it will be good I am sure but I don't need more games at this point. I need business functions and a solid OS with solid features. The games will always be a hit when they arrive. ;-)

For games I say Words with Friends. Apps in general Skype is my #1. But what would really be stellar is if we could get a unified app store between hand held devices and Playbook. Won't get my hopes too high tho.

Whatever it is, it sounds positive concerning the Playbook!!!

I hope it's not angry birds space, that would be horrible and lame. Hopefully it will be something way better, please no ABS. That would really suck for getting are hopes up.

#1 Would be the availability to post photos.

Well, we will see tomorrow. Maybe angry birds space. Or maybe big dicounrsvon all games again wecwill see tmorrow

Could it be Blackberry Music?

It will most likely be the release of a single game. A great game to be sure, but a game. The head of the gaming division isn't going to announce skype, netflix or an OS update. And it is just a tweet. So the most logical conclusion is a popular game is about to drop.

We need apps the aren't games RIM. Your myopic game development strategy is wearing thin.

Or GTA III? That's definitely something Playbook owners should charge their devices for!

Okay he has me excited even though I don't care too much for games. Now I'm hoping Heinz wont let any of his employees hype us up just to let us down. Please let this message be from the new RIM.

You heard it here 1st; Load Runner (in HD) LoL

How about Diablo 3? Now that would be great.

It's gonna be Stephen King's the Cell we're all going to be zombies

I hope Jaycutt but doubt it. I have been waiting on it since day one. I shoot alot of video of my little girls.

BIS Sync

cascades so near the blackberry jam? It is a wonderful possibility :)

How many times has RIM tantalise us with something exciting and then let is down. Sorry Rim, not getting my hopes up,
Look how much you havesunk yourself in a financial hole with all those freebies and price slashing .
Time for some useful apps for us BB faithful ... Not some darn game which I can play it easily on my laptop.

Wackajimb...you get to hit jim b on trhe head with youyr playbook.

Hope it's a good GPS app.

We don't learn eh? Don't put your hopes up, it's RIM we are talking bout here ... Angry birds space is gon be a lil disappointing for me

How does Netflix and skype fall into gaming? duh!! Must be some game like angry bird space.

What, are they going to send out an update to fix my PlayBook's WiFi that the last update screwed up?

Titanius, Nothing wrong with the last update. It was not the best and wanted like native contacts and calender but all working fine. If your wi-fi screwed up, then do a back up and do a factory reset you should be ok

So, looking at what's been said we know it has to do with App World. That could either be an app or something with App World itself, but since we're supposed to "check" App World, and I think App World only gets updated during OS updates, that narrows it down to almost definitely being a new app. Beyond that, I don't think there's anything we can say for sure. Since it was leaked by a gaming person, it's probably a game, but you never know. Whatever it is, clearly they haven't done a very good job of optimization, because it's going to guzzle our batteries (or it could just be such an addictive game that we'll play it all day...). My personal hope is either BBM Music or something new from EA (or a new partner) or, even better, and which would be awesome enough I'd need to charge my battery, a TAT demo compilation!

On the other hand, one random person at RIM saying that something good is coming would more likely mean that it's a game he wants, so I think Angry Birds Space is what it will be, but we'll see tomorrow.

AMEN!

If it's only a single app/game that exists on other platforms, this will be a let down. If it's an exclusive game that is coming to PlayBook first, or a collection of games being released from a developer, that would be more impressive.

my playbook just got an update to 2.0.1.358 i've had a look in app world but no angry birds space. i cant see anything new. or is there another update to come?

The best announcement would be that they made a deal with Zynga. That would be an announcement of epic proportions. I'm bored with words and hanging with friends, but the PlayBook needs those social games ASAP.

Let's look at the clues a bit closer. Didn't RIM just annouce an ability to play games cross platforms on the PlayBook. I think this would be a follow up to that. I wonder if it is a game that is shared with the other platforms and RIM finally decides to crash the party.

Of all the things we need/want/pray for on the PlayBook, it's probably going to be some freakin' game....big wonderful whoopie.....ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ...... ( I still LOVE the PlayBook!!!!)

+100 for angry birds. I'm not a fan of the games but my son is all over me :(

Please let it be NetFlix,....Please!

JMD

God of War for Playbook!!!!

Modern Combat 3??? It's out on Android soo....

A puppy? or Maybe a Pony? Who wouldn't love that!!

Angry Birds Space for sure. Can't wait, it looks really good!

What a bunch of whiners.

Every new game should be welcomed in AppWorld! Angry Birds Space was released a month ago, how long did it take for the first Angry Birds games to arrive to the PlayBook? It took months!

If you or your kids are fans of Angry Birds, it's something to be excited for.

Stop being pathetic and enjoy your PlayBook.

Angry Birds Space _for free_ might be nice, but it's not worth getting excited about. Given RIM's history of "overpromise, underdeliver" I don't think I'll be getting up too early for whatever it is. I'd be happy to be wrong, of course...

Yeah its probably gonna be AB Space.... Maybe for less than 4.99?!!?! That would be nice...

Should be game..maybe angry birds real football or etc..dunno dream about skype or netflix..:p

I think it would be Angry Birds Space (the most logical....). I think RIM waited for everybody or most of us to update to os 2.0.1 before releasing Angry Birds Space (probably to limit piracy). Or hopefully Instagram....

God dammit I hate being a day ahead of America, it could have already happened for me :( its 24th in Australia

Diablo 3! I wish... will probably be AB Space... whatever.

I think its gonna be bigger than just angry birds space. Most likely a new partnership with a big name company. We will then see many new games all at once. This is probably going to be the first of many big announcements all the way to May 3rd.

Rims fighting for its life here that is no secret. Again,I sure hope to see something bigger then abs. RIM has to make these deals with the big devs for BB10 to have a chance. They have to be done before launch of BB10 not at or around it. Here's to hoping we atart seeing some of these deals come to life tomorrow and on into BlackBerry World.

Angry Birds? Who gives a shit. Give me something I can use, not some over-hyped game.

With Jeppsson's quote and it turns out to be Angry Birds space, one word...lame!

I really hope I don't get all hyped up and a sleepless night for angry birds... I'd be pissed.!

Skype, Netflix, Autocad WS (three that I really want but ironically the developers straightout said they WONT develop the app for BB)

Draw Something, Native Word/Scramble w/ Friends, Good Slide Show (picture app), GPS w/ turn by turn direction/voice, oovoo, application where you can take pictures and make 3d models for Revit etc.

Futurama Fry: Not sure if trolling or is serious about something AWESOME

Perhaps a bunch of new apps.... Including the new PaceMaker app and all of the above mentioned games... Whatever it is... It's gonna be BIG!

Free unicorns available from App World!!!!!!!

please let it be skype!!!

Its funny how a little twitter message can generate so much hype and speculation on the part of Playbook users. Now, there's two ways that this could be looked at:

First, and the more positive way, is that Playbook users are very enthusiastic and supportive regarding the Playbook; they look forward to anything that might be coming there way; their willing to purchase any apps that come out on App World; and treat any small tweet from RIM has meaning that greater things are on the horizon.

Second, and the more negative way, is that Playbook users are so desparate for anything that they will pin all their hopes on the smallest of tweets thinking that every one of their problems regarding the Playbook will somehow be miraculously cured; the birds will singing; and the angelic choirs will be heard from above proclaiming peace and prosperity to all mankind.

Tomorrow will be interesting to see what we truly are.

I think its SKYPE I'm feeling it! :))

Something wonderful? - It better be a new game release, such as say Angry Birds Space2 HD (Released first on the PB). I understand why this cannot occur given the user base but its nice to dream.

BTW, I am tired of getting "sloppy seconds" from game developers (ie: last platform to receive the game release and then paying through the nose for the privilege).

i want my PB! Waaa!! wont get it till next week.... wonder what this will be?!! and if it will stick around till i get mine next week?!

Angry Birds Space Full Free?? :P

it's POKEMANS!!! pika pika :D

i think its infinity blade 2!

or maybe not..

I hope it's Angry Birds Space. ABS is a serious departure from the previous ABs and quite fun. It will be "something wonderful" if it is ABS.

Twitter for BlackBerry PlayBook? BBM?

No games will ever fall into the category of "wonderful" for me so I'll remain hopeful it's something more than just a game.

Here you go! 50% off all EA games. I am starting to download dead space.. then monopoly and so on.... Dead space is a 378 MB game for half price.. not a bad deal

One can only dream that it's EA bringing the rest of their mobile games to the playroom.

ah i got it probably its the game "The Womb Raider"!!!!!

BBM!

HA! I got it! Need for "Even More" Speed featuring Angry Bird drivers! Just what I was hoping for!

I got the new OS update this AM and now my browser stalls and disconnects from Wifi randomly.

I doubt the servers would go down to just release a dumb angry bird game...it is a PlayBook upgrade.

a true and full android app store???

Give me Diablo 3 on the playbook.
