Research in Motion (RIM) has finally given its BlackBerry PlayBook's operating system a huge upgrade, making the device capable of handling emails more easily.playbook_white1
The update, called 2.0, that was announced in January at the Consumer Electronics show in Las Vegas, will allow the device to receive email without being connected to a BlackBerry smartphone.

The lack of built-in support for email has been one of the main criticisms that have dogged the iPad rival since it was introduced in 2011.

RIM's Co-CEO Mike Lazaridis said that 'with BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0 we are building on this strong foundation, as well as leveraging our strengths in communications, social integration and productivity, to allow people to use their BlackBerry PlayBook in new ways throughout the day.'

According to The Telegraph, a new unified inbox will allow users to mix work and personal email accounts, while multi-tasking will let users have multiple email messages open, either in plain or rich text.

The Blackberry maker said it is also updating corporate and Office features, as well as improving the App World and its US Video Store and introducing a new 'reader' web browsing mode that shows just the text on a web page.

According to blog Techcrunch, the update provides "everything and more that the PlayBook was previously missing."

"Had the so-called BlackBerry tablet launched with the proper email support, it might not be on a fire sale right now," it added. (ANI)

Facebook Timeline is Now Available for Everyone

Facebook-timeline-001To get Timeline on your profile, you'll have to head over to Facebook's official Timeline page and click the "Get It Now" button at the bottom of the page.

After you've enabled it on your account, you'll need to set everything up and have a seven day review period to play around with the design before anyone else can see it, and then you can hit the publish button and let everyone look at it.

What do you need to do when you're reviewing it? You're allowed to hide or delete status updates, and you can also highlight the updates you want to feature on your Timeline by clicking on the star to the right of the update.

A new tool called Activity Log also makes its debut and you can review every single thing you've ever done on Facebook since you opened your account.

Privacy settings look like they are intact for now, but its best to check it again less you accidentally share information with some circle of friends you don't want to.
