BlackBerry CEO Heins
The BlackBerry PlayBook was not one of BlackBerry's (BBRY) more successful products, which is why CEO Thorsten Heins is understandably wary about producing a sequel in the near future. Australia's Herald Sun reports that while speaking at the BlackBerry Z10 launch in Australia this week, Heins said that he didn't want to produce a followup to the PlayBook until the company figured out how to make it "not just... another tablet." Heins also said that the tablet market had become so competitive that it was hard to earn a decent profit from selling them, and that he owed it to "shareholders to provide a return on investment." So for the moment, it looks like BlackBerry will be all about smartphones first.FibtCT02AAE
