Let the countdown continue… It’s the gift-giving season, and I’m here to give some gadget options for those on your gift list (even yourself). This series will last through the holidays.

Day 7: Get Your BlackBerry Fix in Tablet Format

If you don’t have a tablet yet, you don’t know what you’re missing. The best news is, the pricing has come down on even trusted brands like the BlackBerry Playbook.

The PlayBook has an awesome high-resolution touch screen for perfect gaming and movies, dual-side cameras for video calls, up to 64GB of memory, built-in wi-fi, optional 4G data connectivity and Bluetooth support.

Unlike the iPad, it also fully supports Flash for the tons of games and work apps that are available. The 7” tablet is lightweight and light on the pocketbook, and even comes with a free case.
